I built my first bare-metal hackintosh earlier in the week, feel free to check it out here. That was really a trial run for my ultimate goal of a dual-head workstation with 10.15 and Windows 10 on KVM. I'm still struggling with learning KVM as I'm a VMWare guy at work, so it's what I know. I decided to see if I could get MacOS booted in ESXi on my home lab server as a next step to feeling it out under a hypervisor. Since ESXi has "native" support for MacOS (on Apple metal or with an unlocker) I figured it would be an easier first step. The guts of it all. Wires could be prettier. Hardware:
Software:
Future plans:
I built the Mojave VM in Fusion on my MBP 16" but never booted it (due to AMD kernel). Once I got it built the way I wanted and made the necessary .VMX edits I just uploaded it to the ESXi host. I am very appreciative of the prebuilt .VMDK from AMD OSX, but I plan to build my own vanilla one from scratch using Opencore. With that under my belt I'll return to the ultimate prize of the dual-head workstation on KVM with my 9900k box. [link] [comments] |
