Biggest lie ever.

I've had a Hackintosh for over a year and use it professional with ZERO fucking issues.

All software seems stable if you don't do anything productive with it. Hackintoshing is inherently unreliable because it tries to fix anti-patterns in software development (forced OS vendor lock to the point of bullying Oracle into removing support from Virtualbox) with more anti-patterns. MacOS is intentionally broken, not unintentionally, and you just can't work around that without sacrificing all reasonable guarantees of reliability.

If these people tried submitting Linux kernel patches, they'd get yelled at by Torvalds.
>>
>>61760989
I had a 12core Cheesegrater but single core performance got slow.

Also I wanted to do VR and put a GTX1080 in there (which at the time wasn't supported under macOS).

So no thanks, m8, I'm pretty happy with my MBP + Hackintosh combo :^)

Fucking bullshit m8. I've been pushing my Hackintosh really hard for over a year with ZERO issues.

macOS doesn't really have "drivers" as it works right out of the box. The only things that are funky are audio kexts, LAN/Wifi and GPU. That's it.

If you get approved hardware you're pretty much set.

It's literally the only other mainstream OS with mainstream software still being developed (ie Adobe, etc).

Now go fuck yourself for spreading useless info.
>>
>>61760940
The non-multibeast method is not simple but you're right, it's pretty stable. I've been using Sierra since september and through updates I haven't had issues like my sound crapping itself or anything similar. Heck I could even use night shift when it came out, which I know gives some trouble in my X220 but fortunately it's easy as piss to fix.

The thing is, if you can use a linux distro on a regular basis you shouldn't have issues with fucking hackintosh nowadays. Unless you just copypaste the Arch wiki twice over every fucking time you have a problem, that is.
>>
>>61761007
>2013 Mac Pro is useless
Opinion discarded.
>>
>>61761039
It's actually pretty simple to do Vanilla installs.

If you need Wifi/BT (for Handoff with iOS devices) just get a OOB card thats like $60 and no need for kexts.

Now that's out of the way, the only thing left is audio and you can use AppleALC which is so easy to set up, it's not even funny.

Now audio is out of the way, the only thing left is FakeSMC and maybe InteliMausi kext for your LAN.

Now those two are out of the way, the only thing left is your nVidia WebDrivers (AMD works out of the box, depending on model).

Now you're set.

Loonix is fucking garbage.

The only thing closest to Loonix that has mainstream software support is macOS.

If you despise Windows, but you need mainstream software like Photoshop, Premiere Pro, etc., then you need a Hackintosh.

No contest. The only argument there is with laptops, to be honest. Fuck, now there's native support for NVMe and APFS works with third party drives just fine too with 10.13, so I don't even see the point.

Using patched AppleHDA, external MIC does not work when it plugs in. only internal MIC works. - see if this patched Applehda works for your model. You'll need to add HDAEnalber=Yes to boot.plist.

>>61761119

An OS doesn't not have drivers just because you decide it. If you bake all the drivers you need into your Linux kernel it doesn't make your system any more "driverless".

>>61761141
What I'm saying is, it works out of the box and you don't need to install any shitty drivers like chipset, etc.

kexts are injected on the fly from the fucking EFI partition, so technically you're not "installing" drivers from any setup programs.

Now go suck a cuck you pedantic cuck.

I was *just* talking about making a Hackintosh last night.

I'm retiring a bunch of old HP Form Factors with Core2 duo CPUs, 4gb RAM and rather large drives (1tb, before we migrated to Office 365). I was trying to think of something cool to do with them, and this crossed my mind. Luckily for me, he works at Apple and said the same spiel I read ITT about approved hardware "n-das it". Unfortunately, I don't know where to begin.

Can anyone recommend tutorials or resources? Is hackintosh.com what I should be going by?

No shit. There's a reason everyone who develops arch tells you to not use any of these. I say this as an Arch daily driver.

Arch ships more "vanilla" packages than other distros, this means less shit is done to make them just plug and play with your weird non standard configs. You adding Antergos (i.e. a glorified install script and configs) is going to do nothing more than add numerous headaches.

Run an actual stable distro (i.e. Debian) if you're not going to take the time to actually configure your shit.

You know what I call reliable? Something that works for 8+ months the same way without giving any troubles.

I haven't had -one- distro like that. Let alone Arch linux like some of the turbohipsters around here claim. That's the mother of unreliability, when updating a single fucking package can make Pacman not work anymore. What the fuck is that? What kind of joke OS is that?

I still try and try, after many years, to switch to Linux. I had a hell of a month trying to figure out why I had a slight microstutter with any application that was not mpv and had anything in motion, so for instance, scrolling on Chromium (which by the way on linux requires overriding software rendering... what the heck?) or Firefox. Had only figured it out on the KDE forums by some random fat ass with a youtube channel and 10 posts on that forum. Some random shit right there, if it's reliable I own half of Google.

>so you want to argue about semantics
It's not semantics.
Drivers exist for OSX. If you buy some hardware for your Mac you may have to install software to use it, which will probably include drivers.

Or are you talking about how OSX comes with a bunch of drivers? Windows does too. Windows comes with tons of drivers, and even better, chances are if you have hardware which doesn't have the proper driver with Windows, you can at least boot the OS and then get/install the proper driver.

I honestly don't understand why you are bragging about the limited selection of drivers that comes with OSX.

I'm not saying that macos doesn't need drivers, the other anon said it and I was trying to explain what he actually meant.
Windows 7 has literally no support for drivers, not even wifi cards. 10 is better but you still need to do a lot of updates on a fresh install (that include drivers too) so it's not the same.

Nobody is bragging and of course you should expect more work to get a hackintosh to run perfectly the first time you install it, then it's just a matter of copying kext and updating them. But then you'll won't have to fight with windows anymore.
>>
>>61761695
The difference there is that in most cases, bundled Windows drivers are trash which is why 10 downloads the official ones.

In OSX except for nvidia most drivers bundled are generally fine and chances are, if there's no bundled driver, there's no driver period. So you have less hardware support. Thing is, that problem plagues mostly dedicated cards (like network/sound cards), but if you use integrated shit on a motherboard in the majority of cases shit will work fine.

Laptops are more finicky and not exactly suitable. Even with thinkpads you need shit like a new wlan card (which is $10, a minor inconvenience) and the touchpad support is horrendous which is not pleasant because macOS is known for having the best touchpad/trackpad gesture support there could possibly be (which is why they try to sell their own trackpad so much, even for desktops).

If you take a really, really random slightly dated Intel build (let's say 2 to 6 years old) with an AMD GPU there's no more difficulty about drivers than placing a bunch of files into some specific folders, no installer, no commands, nothing. Just drag and drop shit.

You installed shitty software and then complained about shitty software being on your computer.

ZFS root here.
It's retardedly hard to do in Linux.

ZFS essentially comes in two modules which need to compile a DKMS in the correct order or it will fuck your filesystem.
After you get this correct you need to modprobe zfs and ensure that all the dependencies are proper.
You then need to get zfs-initramfs or zfs-dracut package to initialize your system at boot and then edit your grub parameters to tell it where the pool will be.

You need to have a non-zfs /boot in order to load your initramfs and kernel.
This is all accomplished by the Antergos installer and unless you run ZFS on the regular you're not gonna understand how it works.

Just do a normal ext4 root and leave your data to ZFS.

>>
>>61766962
Basically:

-For minor updates, read the changelog. If "big" features are added, maybe consider that there might be one thing that might stop working and you have to fix it by perhaps replacing a file or two.

-If you do the installation the slightly harder way (which involves grabbing some kexts from here and there instead of using UniBeast) you have next to no chances of fucking up, because official updates won't be able to replace any files that you might not want to have replaced.

-Big updates will most likely have issues at first, specially betas. If you want to have an actual stable experience, always wait until 10.xx.2 as there's a chance some of your favorite software may have slow updates and not catch up with compatibility. One of the big issues with macOS is that a new update almost always guarantees that some programs may stop working because they have to get around a new security feature.

Okay, that's great. I had this suspicion which is why my original incentive was to get the installation next to being as 'vanilla' as possible. I'd anticipate that a new major release will require some time for community updates etc, that's a given.

Give it two to three months. Some people get lucky enough that they will have barely any noticeable issues even on betas, but for instance now they introduced APFS as a usable filesystem on the installation, so that's obviously not going to work smoothly at first. It's like telling people to install a new linux distro on F2FS right away if they have an SSD so to speak.

No you aren't. It's because some of the window decorations have this effect when putting things behind them. In Safari it shows the page. In Chrome it doesn't work.

Unibeast is FINE to use during the install process because that's just the USB stick with drivers in the EFI partition.

Once you're in macOS, just don't use their Multibeast tool. It's shit. It literally patches an audio .kext which means when you update your macOS, it becomes macaco.

If you get lucky and your setup is the same as someone elses, ask for their config file.

There are no "drivers" for macOS, they are kernel extensions which are already included in the system when you install.

The only "drivers" available are from nVidia, called WebDrivers.

Not at all.

However, a general rule of thumb is Wangdows is 3-8% faster than macOS in general overall.

Not due to "drivers" just the way things are.

Apple uses regular parts in their computers, retrofitted into their industrial design.

If you follow the rules and buy similar hardware, you won't have issues and it'll act like a real Mac.

How so?
I like 2560x1440 PPI, and I like 21:9 aspect ratio.

4k is nice, but current GPUs struggle too hard with it.
>>
>>61770362
>21:9 aspect ratio
LOL
>>
>>61759073
The hardest part of arch is installing it, after that it's just learning basic bash commands and googling how to do stuff

>last name parnell
confirmed for black guy.
>>
>>61770835
???
21:9 is amazing for productivity. You seem a bit upset, are people not allowed to have preferences?
>>
>>61771203
Kek good luck with that shitty and discontinued aspect ratio.

16:10 is god tier for productivity.

Holy shit you are delusional
>>
What's the least destructive way to test if Hackintosh will work on my laptop?
>>
>>61771228
I like 16:10 as well.
My macbook pro is 16:10.

I don't care if the aspect ratio is discontinued, I'll just buy a new monitor. Are you poor?

>>61771254
Does Adobe software work on Loonix?

Or Final Cut Pro X?

Or Microsoft Office?

Thought so. Kys LibreOffice "Open Source" fag.

Add a second SSD/M.2 if available.

If not, then make a mirror image of your main drive with Clone Zilla, then install macOS.

haha OP ur dumb
I've installed Arch on my EEEpc 4G (it's one of the few distros that installs without crashing anyways as well as puppylinux and debian minimal).
It works fine but using windows, linux or BSD on a desktop? it doesn't really make sense desu, you're right about macOS I will give you that.

>>61774418
Thanks

>Linus Torvalds
ah, the same guy who dissed apple devs because of HFS even though EXT sucks MASSIVE DONKEY COCKS even TODAY?
the guy who keeps complaining about other kernels even though his kernel keeps getting more and more bloated? (he even admits it haha) while also doing nothing about it
the guy who unironically supports systemD?
the guy who did nothing to kill grub2?
this gotta be bait
