I really love using OpenCore Auxiliary Tools, so I wrote a little introductory guide
Does this guide solely focus on a bare metal install, or can I apply it to Hackintosh in virtual machines too? Used bare-metal for a few years but I’ve been trying to get a personalized kvm/OC config for my Monterey & Big Sur guests in proxmox 7. Both macOS versions boot and are decent but I do wish a host-setup like; https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM. Instead of the more general approach; https://github.com/thenickdude/KVM-Opencore, https://github.com/Leoyzen/KVM-Opencore . Not to discredit either of them, I wouldn’t have a booting macOS without their guidance, but I’d like to tinker with it a bit further
- Anyone got any good guides for making a VM work on AMD hardware?

Consider VFIO for Hackintosh
You can look at this resource - https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM. He links a couple of other guides- you should start with them first.

Mini-ITX build questions
I went with a different case, AMD mini-ITX motherboard, and KVM VM rather than bare metal hackintosh, but if you want to check out my setup it is here: https://github.com/johncolby/macOS-KVM https://pcpartpicker.com/b/ZGn7YJ
- Single GPU Passthrough - AMD RX 5600 XT - VM crash on startup
- hey mini-ITX owner's, what's your build?
- Help

Problems with single GPU passthrough | AMD 5700 XT
I have the vendor-reset fix. I have disabled resizable bar, and I have added the fix for the AMD driver detecting the VM in the XML file.

I’m not sure what you mean by forwarding, but if you mean regular gpu passthrough and the reset bugs with amd gpus, then for the rx580 vendor-reset should typically work: https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset
Does not work with the lower 6000 (below 6800) and 7000 series that can also have reset issues.
- Supported methods of using DKMS kernel modules; GPGPU virtualization
- swtpm_setup: Not overwriting existing state file.
- Worried about vbios size and hash (single gpu passthrough).

AMD GPU Passthrough Black Screen on VM Boot
Just an update installing vendor-reset to counteract the amd gpu reset bug fixed my issues completely. Are you running an amd gpu by chance, it may be worth a shot to try it. https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset

[HELP] AMD REST BUG
1) download https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset/archive/refs/tags/v0.1.0.zip
- Did anyone using windows 10 VM with an AMD GPU have issues installing the proprietary drivers in windows? Win 10 VM just gets BSOD once they start installing
- GPU Passthrough errors: BAR 0, Error 43, vendor-reset
