[GUIDE] Install MacOS Mojave through Clover on MSI H81i Intel Core i5 4690 RX580

[Gamersab69]

This guide is meant for the following build

MSI H81i 
Intel Core i5 4690 Haswell
RX 580

It may or may not work with other mobos.

In order to get the installation started you will have to configure bios 

1. Set UEFI booting mode
2. Enable Windows 8.1 feature, disable secure boot.
3. Set IGD to PEG if you are going to use RX580 otherwise IGD is fine.

• Create USB MacOS Installer on Windows 

1. Download MacOS Mojave Image
2. Burn it on USB through Balena etcher
3. Download Explorer++ and Mini Tool partition wizard
4. Assign letter to EFI USB partition so that windows can recognize it.
5. Run Explorer++ as administrator replace clover files with H81i Clover files
3. Boot Into USB to get installation started.

• Installing MacOS Mojave

Everything is Predefined you do not need to make any changes in Clover.

1. Select Install 
2. Let it boot, Create desired partition through disk utility APFS format. (It is suggested to install MacOS first if you are going to dual boot it with Windows)
3. Start the Installation 

Voila you will be booted into MacOS, now you may setup your Hackintosh.

 

Note: EFI is only tested on Mojave but should work with Catalina and might work on Big Sur. Only 2 x USB 3.0 ports by RENESAS UPD720202 not working.
