This looks exciting. I haven't managed to get Proxmox working fully/correctly yet. I can create the Hack, use the Proxmox Console or VNC or Remote Desktop into macOS but not pass through my RX580 properly. Whenever I do that the Hack either fails to start or if it does I no longer have Console, VNC or RD control - the monitor flashes for a brief second and then displays a message saying no input is being received and goes back to sleep.. I've tried numerous different Proxmox configs but I haven't managed it yet. I would much prefer to run it as Bare Metal, either Catalina or BS as I am far happier in that environment than Proxmox. If someone would be willing to upload their full EFI I would be forever thankful. I've tried so many various things under Proxmox I'm pretty sure I've screwed everything up and need a nice fresh one that is known to work well.

Have a look HERE, at Step 13 Spoiler. There is a script in there that you can add to your CCC clone job to automatically clone your EFI partition to your CCC disk's EFI. There is a TEST_SWITCH so you can run it without actually copying the files but it outputs a list of what it would copy. Just change the switch to 'N' so that it does the copy if you are happy with the test.

My motherboard and CPU should be with me next week, so I am looking forward to building my first virtual Hackintosh. I have got through about half of this thread, so hopefully I will be uptodate by the time I start my build. So much information here, thanks guys, but I will have probably forgotten most of it by the time I am up and running. I have already downloaded the OC_EFI_Maker to get my OC.ISO built, with the latest kexts etc. but am wondering if I need any SSDTs like I use on my Z390 MB and i9-9900k CPU. I haven't seen any mention of SSDTs so I am guessing that I don't need any or I have to make my own. A pointer as to where I can get any prebuilt ones, if I need them, would be gratefully appreciated. Cheers.

Thanks for letting me know so quickly. I have now changed my order to the 3970x.

I am just about to embark on the ThreadRipper/macOS journey. I have bits on order and am awaiting delivery but I have 34 pages of this thread to read first. I know absolutely nothing about Proxmox so this will be an 'interesting journey' and who knows, by xmas I may have a working (Mac) system 🙂 I have a Gigabyte motherboard and the 3960x on order. Hopefully this will be a good combination for my Hackintosh. My 'old' i9-9900k Hack will be going to my daughter for her university degree work in Digital Animation. Building that has at least educated me a little in hackintoshing. Wish me luck 🙂
