Hackintosh Sonoma / Sequoia for HP Compaq Pro 6300 / Elite 8300 (OpenCore 1.0.1)

• The colours of this screenshot are incorrect due to a glitch with the Nvidia graphics card and the HiDPI mode. The display looks correct in real life.

Notes

1. There are two .plist files provided in the OC folder:

• config-nvidia.plist has SIP and Secure Boot disabled for the Nvidia Web Drivers that can be installed with the OpenCore Legacy Patcher post-installation root patch.

• config-normal.plist does not have these modifications.

  Rename the one you want to use to config.plist.

2. Modify config.plist for your own serial number, UUID, MLB, ROM, etc. You can generate them with GenSMBIOS (use type iMacPro1,1). Make sure your generated serial number is NOT valid on the Apple check coverage page.
3. There are two .aml files provided in the OC/ACPI folder:

• SSDT-i5-3470.aml is designed for the Intel Core i5-3470 (by tcg96)

• SSDT-i7-3770.aml is designed for the Intel Core i7-3770 (by aloha-cn)

  Rename the one you want to use to SSDT.aml. Or you can generate your own with ssdtPRGen.sh.

4. Configure IGPU if you don't use dGPU.
5. These files are very similar to the repository by aloha-cn. Drivers and OpenCore are updated for compatibility with the newer MacOS versions, and RestrictEvents.kext and revpatch=sbvmm boot argument are added to enable updates from System Settings.
6. This was only tested on a SATA SSD. To use NVMe SSD or Apple PCIe SSD, you have to use a USB disk for boot (like when starting installation).
