@coolboymew @goatmeal @mangeurdenuage @sun I did a Hackintosh with 10.5 Leopard on my old P35 chipset and Core 2 Duo E8400 cpu with Nvidia 8800GT I built after I graduated high school. It was pretty involved back then because you had to use a gparted live cd to format your drive to HFS+ and then put a chainloader file onto the root of the drive. I got it to boot but sadly not everything worked right and I believe a lot of it was due to my 8800GT GPU not being properly supported.
The TonyMac X86 project did streamline a lot of things for modern hardware and it had a large repo of kexts ( kernel extensions ). Sadly you can't do much wiht modern macs because they migrated over to the M* familiy chips and those are arm instead of X86_64 cpus.
It's a cool novelty but for practicality I don't see any real reason to do a hackintosh unless you need something that you can't run in a OSX VM image.Another Linux Walt Alt likes this. -

@ooignignoktoo @coolboymew @goatmeal @mangeurdenuage @sun In the #WinVista days, I gave Half_son an HP laptop that didn't like any of the GNU+Linux distros I used. He turned it into a hackintosh long enough to pass the local college's Mac course. But, yeah, installed an update and everything broke. -

@sun @coolboymew @goatmeal @mangeurdenuage there's little reason, no new drivers for gpus or igpus, only apple silicon, and as people grow they get tired of workarounds and "yeah you have to deal with no gpu accel" -

@mischievoustomato @coolboymew @goatmeal @sun Sounds like they should lynch hardware manufacturers but instead they bend over. -

@mischievoustomato @coolboymew @goatmeal @sun Some political spectrum has done that in the past 60years and thank god I needed drug addicted murder hobos in the streets combined with being punished for doing my job right while those who shit will be rewarded. -
