Guide for Low-end CPUs (Pentium, Celeron)
- Because macOS don't support Pentium, Celeron CPUs, so we need a use the Fake CPUID and some changes, patches for that CPU to boot in MacOS:
Tutorial:
- In your config.plist, goto Kernel > Emulate add these data into require value
CpuidData: A9060300 00000000 00000000 00000000
CpuidMask: FFFFFFFF 00000000 00000000 00000000
- Enable Kernel > DummyPowerManagement
- Disable NVRAM > WriteFlash
- Replace HFSPlus.efi to HFSPlusLegacy.efi
- Don't forget to take an OC Snapshot in ProperTree after you work with files!
- Some problem are described/fix like this Reddit post.
Notes
- If you use GT730 2GB GDDR5 from Gigabyte like me, you should add agdpmod=pikera in boot-arg. That fix screen flash problem.
