So you have decided to make a vanilla Mojave installer for your AMD system, but for some reason don't have access to a VM or a Mac to make one properly. Maybe you don't have enough RAM for your VM, or maybe you just don't have a big enough USB drive. (seriously? No 8GB drive in 2019?)
Some smart minds realised that since real Mac's can install a new OS directly from the web, there must be a way for us to do so too. Well, we eventually did figure it out. First an Intel version was created, and now the AMD version has been born.
Heavily inspired by the guide of Midi for Intel.
Let's extremely oversimplify what we will be doing in this guide.
- Download the macOS recovery
- Flash it to a USB drive
- Add a prelinked kernel
- Install Clover
- Configure Clover
- Install macOS (hopefully)
- ???
- Profit
- Midi - His extremely well made Intel guide on the subject was what this guide is based on.
- Apple - macOS
- CorpNewt - He made the scripts used here.
- Clover team - Without Clover we'd still be stuck with bootloaders named after animals.
- Many other folks who made this happen.
