Hackintosh on an AMD processor!

[No]

I'm really a noob at this and I have had failed attempts at doing this but I want to try one more time. My only successful attempt was on VirtualBox using some modified thing for Nireshv2. I'll actually try that iso because it worked

 

I just know that i'm supposed to use the /amdfx and -v boot flags.

Now i really hope that people know how 2 hackintosh on this forum because people on niresh forums never reply and if they do they criticize people for not knowing something.

pls help

I never got it too work.

The only time i have been succesfull, was OSX mountain lion in VM-ware.

My conclusion is on AMD FX cpu´s it simply doesnt work.

Yeah, the thing I have for yosemite is a bootloader VMD and a yosemite niresh for amd vmd and that's all thats worked but its only for virtualbox and vmware

I have a Hackintosh system and have some experience. All I know is that AMD Hackintosh is more difficult than the Intel processors but apparently still doable. Good luck! Please post results if successful, it's of interest to me.

Yes, and it probably only worked because of those iso´s where patched to trick the OS that you use an intel cpu.

Atleast with mountain lion it was the case.

 

I tried it a gazillion times on bare hardware allready with no succes.

So when you check the OS where it says "about this mac" what does it say for the processor? Very interesting.

In my case in VM ware it showed that i use an intel cpu lol.

Just watched an AMD Hackintosh video and saw the same, I assume it's the same results for all AMD Hackintoshes then

 

Outstanding that it's able to be done on AMD processors, good stuff!

Yeah in VM.

But on bare hardware, it never worked for me.

Also even if you have intel, its still not fully guarenteed to work.

It highly depends on your motherboard aswell, as far as i understood about it.

There are a couple of topics to be found on forums about compatible motherboards.

Any luck with TonyMacX86? I hear that's the main site for it

[Sintezza]

But yeah i basicly give up on it.

Because i personaly dont realy see much of a benefit at using OSX over any Linux distro.

On normal niresh, it says "Unknown 3.5Ghz processor" but it recognizes my gpu

tonymac has no amd support but i still use their drivers for gpu

Hate to break it to you but this site isn't very good for Hackintoshing. I of course speak on behalf of my own experience from this site for this particular topic. Any luck asking on youtube?

All youtube videos are on Niresh because it dosen't need a mac to make the usb installer and it works on AMD
