Boot from the USB installer, install macOS onto your target drive, and then copy the EFI folder from the USB to the EFI System Partition of your macOS drive. After the first successful boot, use OpenCore Configurator or a similar tool to fine-tune your configuration. Post-installation tasks include USB port mapping and generating a custom config.plist tailored to your specific hardware.

Setting up remote desktop or SSH access to configure your system. The Ultimate Fix: Pair with a Compatible AMD dGPU

Recommended tool for editing your config.plist without corrupting it. Known Issues & Limitations

By injecting 9B3E0000 , you are telling macOS: "Hello, I am a laptop GPU."

AMD Radeon RX 560, RX 570, RX 580 (Polaris architecture), or the T2000/WX series.

The Intel UHD Graphics 770 (found in 12th–14th Gen Intel desktop CPUs) is an integrated GPU with improved performance over prior Intel iGPUs. Running macOS on non-Apple hardware (a Hackintosh) that uses UHD 770 is possible but requires careful configuration and has limitations.

: While the iGPU doesn't work, the CPUs themselves (like the i5-12600K or i9-14900K) can be used by spoofing them as 10th Gen "Comet Lake" processors in your config.plist .

(Note: 6650 XT requires a simple device-id spoof to match the 6600 XT).

The foundational issue with the Intel UHD 770 iGPU stems from the timeline of Apple’s hardware transition. Apple phased out Intel-based Macs completely in favor of its proprietary Apple Silicon (M-series chips).

If you want, I can generate a tailored OpenCore kext list, sample config.plist snippets, or recommended framebuffer patches for a specific motherboard and macOS version—tell me your motherboard model, CPU, and target macOS version.
