JpMac - Hackintosh ♥
Auto Boot - Auto select default mac drive
edit EFI/OC/config.plist
Now in our config.plist, we have 4 things we need to fix:
Misc -> Boot -> ShowPicker = false
Others Open core Setting::
Misc -> Boot -> PickerMode: External
Misc -> Boot -> PickerAttributes: 17
This enables mouse/trackpad support as well as .VolumeIcon.icns reading from the drive, allows for macOS installer icons to appear in the picker
UEFI -> Drivers and add OpenCanopy.efi
!!! - Set SATA mode to AHCI (Use CTRL+S in BIOS to show hidden setting for SATA Mode menu) Once all this is saved, you can reboot and be greeted with a true Mac-like GUI:
