Good to note I guess. I hadn’t thought of hackintoss forums
What originally got me here was this post.

To Hackintosh a Macintosh: Mac Pro 1,1 with El Capitan

This is a series. When I do others I will post them all towards each other at the bottom of the first post. So earlier I posted this image. [image] I managed to get El Capitan on my mac pro 1,1. Not TOO difficult but the major problem is going to be getting some of the things you need... Them being: Mac Pro (1,1 or 2,1) 8GB USB or bigger 16 GB of RAM Dual Processors (I am personally recommending this but its not a real requirement) A Hard Drive (duh) The 1,1 to 2,1 firmware updater ( https://mega.nz/#!6AcSiIAR!dVq6o_p03J6g5gVMCV8y3kv0BrT6Gc4S1b0okxhBgoY my personal mega ) Key to that just in case: !dVq6o_p03J6g5gVMCV8y3kv0BrT6Gc4S1b0okxhBgoY Piker USB tool ( http://forums.macrumors.com/attachments/pikify3-1-v12-zip.661799/ ) El Capitan .app in your applications folder You need at least 12 GB of ram to make the installer USB.

Open up Pike's tool (I used V12) and open terminal 4. do ./pikecreatebootusb (or whatever the name of the exact script is in the file) /Volume/(yourusbvolumename). You can find this in disk utility. 5. Boot into the usb. In the folder with the toolkit are some EFI files. These are modified files to make OSX boot on your mac pro 1,1. One has the new design that is a white bg and a black logo, and the other one is the older gray bg gray logo which I like more. The default is gray. You can copy it over if you really want or just ignore it. Its an aesthetic that will matter for all of 20 seconds. Now install El Capitan. My personal machine is: Mac Pro 1,1 with 2,1 firmware 16 GB FB-Dimm ram 1tb HDD + 250gb HDD + 64 GB SSD 2 x cd drives XFX R7 370 (El Capitan has drive…

Is he still around? I haven’t seen @FaunCB today.

I might also ask on IRC, but I will keep a 380 or 390 in mind as @DerKrieger recommended in the lounge earlier.
