  • (x240 ThinkPad) Reboots and the hard drive disappears after installation
    1 project | /r/hackintosh | 20 Oct 2021
    Hello guys, so I've been trying to install mac os big sur on my ThinkPad x240 using this guide after configuring everything and setting up (on a brand new USB stick) all the files, I booted normally into open core and then into recovery. I clicked restore mac os and waited an extremely long time to finish installation (Even tho I have a decent connection), when the installation was done the computer rebooted. and it showed me the option to select a booting device, selecting the hard drive i installed the mac os won't do anything so I booted back again the USB stick, there I could boot the hard drive, which results in rebooting the computer and then the option to select the had drive in open core completely disapearing.
  • Thinkpad x240 display upgrade and macos

    Have you tried it yourself? I've come across this link https://github.com/Sniki/Lenovo-Thinkpad-X240 with EFI folder. If I have I got the right idea, the concept revolves around making thinkpad boot like it a was mac machine (using clover or opencore) and then loading with the correct files in EFI folder and suitable kexts for the subsystems (audio, trackpad etc)?
  • How to fix garbled display
    1 project | /r/hackintosh | 25 Jun 2021
    Hi, I have a thinkpad x240 with i5 4300u and intel hd4400 and Big Sur installed, everytime I reboot or shutdown the machine I am greeted with a garbled display and need to put it to sleep first then wake it up before the display fixes it self. My display is 1080p with touchscreen, I followed Sniki's guide but it still has the same issue. Was wondering if anybody has other solution. Thank you. https://github.com/Sniki/Lenovo-Thinkpad-X240
  • macOS Monterey on Lenovo ThinkPad x240!
    1 project | /r/hackintosh | 10 Jun 2021
    Thanks, I'll give it a go whenever I get the chance. I'm pretty sure I had my bios set up properly (secure boot off, tpm off, virtualization on), but it's starting to look like it's an issue with how I set up my installation media. I had tried using this prebuilt efi to get it working (I'm pretty sure it's the one you used for some guidance) , but it also didn't work. I tried configuring my own config.plist using dortania's opencore guide and using the prebuilt efi for any kexts I was unsure about. Thanks again! I'll probably get it working eventually when school ends.
