Whats About Hackintost

Apple designed Mac OS X so that only Macs can run it. If you attempt to stick a Mac OS X installation disc into any computer that isn’t made by Apple, it simply won’t work. Unlike the Windows or Linux operating systems, Mac OS X normally requires a very specific set of hardware to run.

Hackintoshing is the process of overcoming these limitations, by installing extra software with Mac OS X that adds support to a wider range of hardware. There’s no actual hacking or cracking involved! If you like the way Mac OS X runs, or prefer the design of OS X to Windows, but you don’t want to pay a $500 premium just to buy a Mac, then a Hackintosh may be for you.

How About DSDT

I would say that I very much appreciate his work is brilliant, many posts and their dedicated time.
I would like to take some small doubts with you, since I have an obscure way to set up my hackintosh,
It is a DELL laptop model 7348, with CPU intel core i7 5500U Broadwell and Intel HD Graphics 5500

Already managed to install and run osx, I could run some items by default were not working,
Even managed to solve the problem of pre allocated DVMT, that i have to do bios dump to find out which variable should alter.
The battery worked, sound worked with some noise when i put the headset, finally, I’m on the right track.

I reached a point following their tutorials, to patch DSDT and SSDT,
in CLOVER, I pressed fn + f4 and took the original DSDT and using iasl to convert to .dsl then applied the PATCHS COMMON, doubt: I need to apply all of them? you list in your guide here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-l…sdt-ssdts.html

“Fix _WAK Arg0 v2”
“HPET Fix”
“SMBUS Fix”
“IRQ Fix”
“RTC Fix”
“OS Check Fix”
“Fix Mutex with non-zero SyncLevel”
“Fix PNOT/PPNT”
“Add IMEI”

As for SSDTS, I see, the SSDT-1 times, SSDT-2, in my case I created just one SSDT with ssdtPRGen.sh with changes to Broadwell,

when I already have my compiled and SSDT need a new patch, I need to make the whole procedure of taking the original DSDT, apply all previous patches and the necessary new patch or have any way to apply only the desired current patch?

But do all this without knowing exactly what I’m doing,

I would like to know the fundamentals, needs, situations and times when I do patch dsdt and SSDT, no need to explain me if you can spend a good material.
