kext VS OpenCorePkg

do you have both USBToolBox.kext and UTBMap.kext? you need both USBToolBox.kext and UTBMap.kext for USBToolBox to function. https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext

https://github.com/USBToolBox/toolhttps://github.com/USBToolBox/kext

Output from usb mapping is UTBMap.kext. Then you add USBToolbox.kext

If you have access to windows, this is a good usb mapping script. https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext. Heaps of guides around.

USBtoolbox, UTBmap

Do the usb mapping with USBToolboxadd Toolbox.kext too

Next, head here (https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext/releases)

Before you install OSX on the target machine, install Windows 10 or Windows 11 first. Make sure that ALL of your drivers for Windows 10 or 11 are installed (especially your chipset drivers). Use the Windows version of USBToolBox, and map your ports per their instructions (basic instructions are on the same page with the utility). Grab that here: https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool. Run the Windows.exe version (your antivirus software will go nuts trying to run this on your machine, either allow it, or rename the executable after unpacking it). Copy the created kext (called UTBMap.kext) file this program creates onto a separate flash drive to use after MacOSX is installed. Next, head here (https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext/releases), and grab the two kexts (USBToolBox.kext and UTBDefault.kext) within the zip file. Unpack, and put them in your EFI/OC/Kexts folder on your bootable USB drive. Use ProperTree to open the config.plist on your bootable drive, do an OC Clean Snapshot (this updates the config.plist with the new kexts you added), and SAVE.

Here's a large example with nested arrays and dicts, integers, strings, etc:

The hackintosh community has tools to generate those #s. e.g. https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/tree/master/Utili...

OpenCore 0.9.7 is out. You can get it from Acidanthera.

OpenCore 0.9.6 is out. Although there is only 1 change in config.plist (useful only for Max OS X 10.4 and 10.5), the code continues to receive improvements and fixes.https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/releases

acidanthera for OpenCore and half the kexts here

I just installed MacOS Ventura yesterday on a 2013 MacBook Pro by using OpenCore. Worth checking out if you haven’t already considered it: https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg#readme

IF you don't have opencore downloaded, don't download from their link, go directly to the dortania guide here and download version 0.9.2: https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/releases/

You also seem to be using an older version of OpenCore, so updating that would be a good idea if you get the GPU issue sorted.

This is due to OpenCore getting confused when trying to boot Windows and accidentally thinking it's booting OpenCore. This can be avoided by either move Windows to it's own drive or adding a custom drive path under BlessOverride. See Configuration.pdf (opens new window)for more details.
