I have two Hackintosh systems, both running Big Sur. I am going to be updating to Monterey, but I'd like to still have a Big Sur USB installer just incase.
I only have two 32GB USB flash drives and I think it's wasteful to have a total of 4x USB drives to have each version for each system and my other USB drives are being occupied with other important stuff as well.
my EFI folder on both my hackies are around 50MB, and the EFI partition is 200mb.
Can I just rename the EFI folders to something like "EFI_DESKTOP" and "EFI_LAPTOP" and rename the one I wish to use as "EFI" in order to make that the dominant bootable EFI?
Or would it be more advisable to put all the kexts/etc in same EFI folder and have a config.desktop and config.laptop that I rename to config.plist when I want to enable that setup?
Personally, I think the EFI_DESKTOP / EFI_LAPTOP folder method would be my preferred choice. I already leave textfile notes in my EFI folders and partition roots, so it's not like it would be easy to mix or mess up.
Does anyone see a problem with this?
