My hardware that is currently being used in this system is a Core2Duo E7400, 8800GT, 8gb of DDR2 and an Asus P5W-DH Deluxe motherboard. These should all be compatible with High Sierra. Once I get everything installed I have a Xeon and GTX 650 that are going to go in.
Alright, so I didn't follow a vanilla tutorial as I had a friend who was meant to be sending me a copy of MacOS he downloaded but I haven't heard back from him for a few days, and I must admit I'm itching to get this working. I followed https://www.hackintosh.computer/1428/hackintosh-high-sierra-zone-aka-niresh-high-sierra-guide/ to get to a working install screen, which gives me the option to select either the Installer or the hard drive currently in the machine. The problem is, as soon as I hit install it will run, detect my CPU, then show a screen that says [ACPI PATCHER] Adding booter spec to the platform expert and then kernel panic.
Through some Googling I found some arguments that help a bit, that being the following:
-x -v -f acpi=off PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=No
However, it then kernel panics after saying "Patching AppleRTC, 1 Substitutions made!"
Has anyone ever encountered something similar? Google search results are bleak and I feel like this is the only thing holding me back currently. Thanks! :)
