    Repo for the OpenCore Install Guide

  • I successfully install macOS Monterey in an i3 8100 and UHD 630 Hackintosh following the Dortania OpenCore Install Guide (https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/). However, patience and determination were key to making it work

  • BrcmPatchRAM

  • I found two solutions. The first is a kext named "BlueToolFixup.kext" (https://github.com/acidanthera/BrcmPatchRAM) to make the UB400 work on higher versions. The second solution is a program that makes wireless USB adapters functional even though no drivers were available from the manufacturer (https://github.com/chris1111/Wireless-USB-OC-Big-Sur-Adapter/releases/tag/V16).

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Wireless-USB-OC-Big-Sur-Adapter

    Drivers for Realtek 802.11n and 802.11ac USB Wi-Fi adapters. Packages for macOS Hackintosh PC or Laptop

  • I found two solutions. The first is a kext named "BlueToolFixup.kext" (https://github.com/acidanthera/BrcmPatchRAM) to make the UB400 work on higher versions.

  • MountEFI

    An even more robust edition of my previous MountEFI scripts

  • Once I added the "BlueToolFixup.kext" in the EFI folder (using MountEFI: https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI), it was time to update from macOS Catalina to Monterey. The update process was successful, and after disabling SIP (as instructed by chris1111 -author of Wireless-USB-BigSur-Adapter-.), everything worked fine.
