Lazy Hackintosh Image Generator

What is this?

This automatical app makes Hackintosh installer from original Macintosh Installer app/disk image.

Why do I need this?

If you are on a computer that does not support UEFI.
If you have hardwares on you computer that causes original installation image kernel panic.
If you are having trouble continuing installation after restart.
If you are just too lazy to read the tutorial and install the original.

you'll need this app to alter the original installation image.

How to use

Just drag the app/dmg file onto the image icon, click start and enjoy.

If you use Chameleon Bootloader, you can also drop your Chameleon Extra folder onto the app. App then will make this a Chameleon bootable image.

Shut up and gimmi the app

Just download the LazyHackintoshGenerator.app.zip. It will keep updating to the latest version.

Also, you may use this script for downloading updates.

Build

This project relys on CocoaPods to manage dependencies, after you have installed it on your system, run pod install to download dependencies of the project.

Then set the build target to LazyHackintoshGenerator and build.

Should the build succeed it will likely generate a defect app. You'll need to use SMJobBlessUtil.py to check if the app had been built correctly.

Use it like this: ./SMJobBlessUtil.py check /path/to/LazyHackintoshGenerator.app

and correct anything report by it in info.plist and LazyGenHelper-Info.plist until it doesn't show any output.
