I want to install OSX Yosemite on my laptop. So I downloaded it from apple's website and used macOS Catalina installed on vmWare Workstation to create a bootable usb. The BIOS supports UEFI boot and I reached the OS selection screen and selected Install OSX Yosemite. I reached OS install utility but when I click reinstall OSx it doesn't do anything. When I checked the logs It says Dependency com.apple.iokit.IOHIDSystem fallback to com.apple.iokit.IOHIDFamily succeeded. Please fix your kext!
What can I do about it. But I can successfully install Niresh Yosemite(I know distros are not recommended). So can I install the distro and convert it to original and also convert clover to opencore, is it possible or what can I do to fix the error or should I try with another macOS Version. The iGPU only supported till High Sierra
