We build a Hackintosh – BIOS Settings and the installation of MacOS Catalina 10.15. | Part 2

I don’t want to introduce the complete installation of MacOS here, because this is done in the same way as the installation of Windows. Only the small things that came up during the installation and the first reboot I think are interesting here. Clover Bootloader was, thanks to the help of al6042, now properly configured and I was excited to finally see the verbose mode running across the screen! well, see for yourself…

The installation just started and again there was a problem. Abort! Verbose mode indicates gibberish only. What’s going on now? Posting problem on Hackintosh forum. The answer came directly: “Just plug the stick into another USB port” (al6042, 2020). I just thought, ok this is like religion, you don’t have to understand it, just believe it. Finally, the installation went through! How did he know it was the USB port?

 

The hackintosh sees the light of day! don’t even think about it! the first reboot followed and the attempt to boot from the SSD: no way! you just have to copy the bootloader from the EFI of the stick to the EFI of the SSD. Then the boot process also works from the SSD. Again what learned and nothing for ungood!

The “verbose mode” has been deactivated and the applekenner sees the usual view! except Wlan everything works. Unfortunately the Intel Wlan M.2 modules are currently not supported. The Bluetooth part works, but only to a limited extent. Typical Apple features, such as Air Drop, or telephoning via computer-phone combination unfortunately does not work. I had already lost a few sentences on this in the first part of the review and referred to possible solutions. So now you know at least the highlights: Me and the MacOS installation. Check!
