Thinkstation P910 Hackintosh

Notice: If you need to edit config.plist, don't use Clover/OpenCore configurator, use Xcode or ProperTree instead.

Introduction

Clover and Opencore efi for Thinkstation P910 Hackintosh of macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

  • Clover efi origined from KGP, a detailed guide from him can be found on InsanelyMac
  • Opencore efi was ported from KGP's with my patch to automaticly detect Broadwell-EP series CPUs #585
  • Both efis can be easily migrated to the latest macOS Catalina by replacing the kernel and kexts patches colleccted by nmano
