gibMacOS VS GenSMBIOS

also, possibly useful, i bookmarked this a long time ago. never used it though.

https://github.com/corpnewt/gibMacOS download all this then run gibMacOS.command with terminal then it will give you a menu of all apple updates and macos verisons to download driectly from apple servers

Also, don't quote me on this tho, but I'm pretty sure that 2017 MBP's came with High Sierra from the factory, and not Sierra? Macs don't let you run operating systems older than what they came from the factory with. One thing you can do tho is to use this tool: https://github.com/corpnewt/gibMacOS

Most likely you don't have any serial number bound to that VM. You can generate a SN with this script by typing your Mac model

Name: BOARD_SERIAL Key: BOARD_SERIAL Value: [Generate via GenSMBIOS](https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS)

Is your SMBIOS configured properly ? Use Corpnewt’s GenSMBIOS Also, you may create a separate account on your hackintosh to do this.

Looks like you're trying to use a "Configurator" utility in your video.Most likely part of your problem. Not any part of them are supported around here. Try GenSMBios or just manually enter it in your config.

OpenCore 0.8.7 / Dumping DSDT use SSDTTime for generate ACPI Tables / Use genSMBIOS for generate MLB (Board Serial), ROM (Mac Address), SystemSerialNumber (Serial), SystemUUID (SmUUID)

if you have/did a proper SMBIOS injection, nothing happens, it's just like you have a real mac. Just avoid changing your SMBIOS abruptly (if ever) with your account logged in, best to log out and try new SMBIOS. For better SMBIOS injection I recommend you to use "GenSMBIOS". In my case, all services always work on the first try.

Not necessarily at the moment, after installation (if everything is ok - I hope so), you can do it with https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS
