Disclaimer

Use at your own risk. I take no responsiblity if your rig explodes. Create unique SMBios values for your rig. Don't copy ones shown in the config.plist!!!

Important information

  • This EFI supports only MacOS versions catalina(10.15) and higher. Your system will not boot if you use this on Mojave and High Sierra. As a result, there will be only 3 core count patches in this EFI instead of the usual 4.
  • Incremental OTA updates from Ventura to Tahoe may fail and force you to download the full installer if you use BluetoolFixup kext in your setup. You can overcome this issue by disabling the kext in your config.plist prior to running your updates.
  • Universal patches introduced here and updates for Ventura 13.3+ introduced here requires you to change the core count of your processor. More information can be found here.
  • Securebootmodel should be set to Disabled for Sonoma >= 14.4, Sequoia & Tahoe installs.
  • You will need to use Helliport app for wifi in Sequoia & Tahoe.
  • WhateverGreen kext should be disabled during the Tahoe installation process. AppleALC doesn't work on Tahoe.
  • Press spacebar to view additional options in the OC bootscreen.
