Hackintosh Dual Boot with OpenCore with full ACPI and Real Vanilla solution

[MaLd0n]

The OpenCore MOD topic https://tinyurl.com/2p9dzvj4

 

The idea of this topic is to use a complete ACPI solution for one Real Vanilla Hackintosh with OpenCore and not a 3 or 4 SSDTs with a non-sense and newbie things. If you use Clover don't need it. Clover inject edited files only in MacOS.

 

1- Boot with no Picker

Go to Misc tab, Security tab and add 2687747 in Scan Policy to hide all NTFS drivers in picker.

Go to Misc tab, Boot tab, uncheck Show Picker and Save. Don't reboot!

2- Select the system you want to use to start up your computer

a- Go to System Preferences / Startup Disk

Select MacOs and Restart

or

b- Use Timeout=1 and Show Picker option enable, reboot, in Boot Screen press Ctrl , Select MacOS entry, press Enter

 

3- Boot into Windows

Just use bootkey and select Windows Boot Manager. Some examples: Asus F8 key. Gigabyte F12 key, etc.

 

*Some observations

a- If you Reset Nvram you need select default disk again.

Nice.

I had it well configured, I needed to do the step of pressing Ctrl in the boot.
One question, what is the Piker Mode option? I have it in External, but I see that this Bullit and Apple.

Thank you.

ctrl put one disk as default boot

external is for "personal" theme
