I’m doing IT as a student worker at a small college, and we recently found a bunch of Mac Pros in storage. With some work, we now have a Mac Pro 2010 with 128gb ram, 2x 6 core xeons, SSD storage, and an RX 580 GPU running Sonoma 14.5 with OpenCore. That machine is incredible! Total cost on eBay would be around $500, and since it’s a real mac, it gets all the real mac things. It is about 1/4th the graphics performance of my MacBook for about 1/6th of the price. Well worth the time.

Another very useful video. Interesting that the Apple 'verification' system will recognise when a serial number is used too frequently (too many users) but be totally unable to determine when a serial number is actually applied to a piece of Apple hardware (or not). Not rocket science really but never mind, of course they may see videos like this and tighten up a bit...

per baremetal Dortania Guide, OSX-KVM is considered a prebuilt, you do NOT want to use OpenCore files generated by another user, the same way you would not use someone else’s EFI for your bare metal machine. I’m really disappointed with the use of OSX-KVM, considering DarwinKVM has existed for almost a year now, and provides a proper full in-depth guide for creating macOS VM’s from scratch, without any privacy issues and prebuilts .
@@ansonx10 I am the developer and lead contributor, I maintain the project and am currently pushing bug fixes to DiskProvision, more tools created for properly making the required files from scratch. The goal here was to use iCloud safely, you cannot do that if you did not generate your own OpenCore image, which OSX-KVM does not instruct you on how to do.
@@RoyalGraphX Ah I see. I’m happy to meet you. I assumed this was a “word of mouth” recommendation, but I didn’t think it would be from the developer’s mouth. lol Anyway, I have had functioning iCloud on both bare metal and KVM hackintoshes. I only used OSX-KVM as a base, and will use stock OpenCore for everything I can. I really wish it would just tell me which things need to be done to make it work in a VM, so I’m glad to find your guides. I can’t wait to look into them.
@@ansonx10 It technically is common knowledge among people who want to run Mac OS X / macOS on their standard PC systems that the OpenCore bootloader is intended to be built by the user, for the intended target machine. This means, not sharing prebuilts is a very common rule in Hac servers. Unfortunately, not many people understand VMs in a fundamental level, to where they don't see that a virtual machine is exactly what its name implies, a machine, a full emulated machine, with its very own Mobo, chipset, PCIe lanes, and as such, we must build our own OpenCore images for the intended hardware we are targeting, this comes with generating your own serial number. The only reason people make so many videos about GenSMBIOS for generating new serial data is simply because of the amount of people who do not make their config.plist from scratch, as generating proper Platform Information is a required step of creating any OC image, USB, or Hac. Its a fundamental step that gets skipped by everyone, because no one makes their own files.
Very interesting info! I do get tired of hearing the ‘apple hardware is too expensive’ repeated constantly. The actual point is that vittualisation means you don’t need another physical machine eliminating much of the cost irrespective.
One thing I would like to point out, if your VM gets its IP from a shared network config (i.e like 10.1.0.x.x) then it may have some network issues, but if the VM shares the NAT (i.e gets an IP in 192.168.x.x) then it would get a lot less network related issues. 😊
Just a note: 10/8 and 192.168/16 are not different types of IP addresses. They are both designated as private address ranges (i.e. not globally routable) by RFC 1918, just of different sizes (incidentally, there's also 172.16/12, but that seems to be rarely used). What purposes they are used for depend on the equipment/software used and site policy. Are you talking about some VM in particular?
There a lot going on in hardware recognition/ identification. Just check out the recent update scandal, where photos appear on devices that were set to factory settings. That's crazy
Oh this is going to be a colossal pain in the A for Apple. I work with some of their technicians and I already know this is probably going to have some serious problems for new devices and parts.
you can also use propertree to edit plist files, and it also has a few options to load in changes you made to opencore's efi folder to the config file (so it auto populates kexts and drivers)
The ptr record for the IP ending in 199 points to based dot win. But your mx record points to mail dot based dot win. Maybe your ptr record needs to resolve to the same FQDN so certain mail hosts don't reject your mail. It's a long shot, but it's the only test that didn't pass using the mxtoolbox smtp tester.
Unless someone finds a way to make newer versions of macOS usable on other ARM chips, it's unlikely that these methods will keep working on newer versions of macOS. Qualcomm chips are using ARM as well, but the way the Apple Chips are built is just different so that would require some extra work to emulate the OS.
Don't get your hopes up people. On more recent macOS versions even the emulated USB controller will give you problems and passing a USB soundcard through is going to be a problem. GPU passthrough will depend on your motherboard, so your mileage may vary. Does it run? Yes. Is it usable? Not so much.
To be fair regarding the cost of Apple desktop machines, you can get a used Mac Mini M1 for like $400. Would I rather have a real computer? Yeah but if you just need an Apple box for testing it's doable
Yeah, the "Apple Tax" is hardly a thing anymore for many of their models. (In fact, it's arguable that it's the laptops now that exhibit it more than the desktops do, so long as you ignore the egregious Mac Pro.)
@@oogami256the laptops are usually better value compared to Windows machines when you consider the whole package. It's always a good keyboard, a good trackpad, a good speaker, good hinges, etc. On every single Windows machine I purchased, there's always some drawback.
You can also sign up for an iCloud email on an iphone. Im pretty sure you can find a 4 year old beater phone with a cracked screen for $50 to sign up for an email.
What do you think of the new snapdragon arm windows laptops coming out and the spyware they subtly included, marketed as a new ai feature. Recall. Although i love the idea of arm laptops with windows 😂
What is the actual max. number of mail accounts you can create with one serial number? Also I guess there will be many future unhappy Apple customers who can't create an Apple-ID on their brand new iPhone because they get assigned these Hackintosh serial numbers?
4:50 Quick heads up you didn't properly paste the MAC address you copied, in vim when you delete something it replaces what you currently have in your clipboard buffer, making you paste what you just deleted
I don’t think apples desktops are that overpriced the Mac mini starts at £595 in the uk. For that price it’s very competitive with many pcs especially for Single threaded applications
4:44 NVIM has started copying to the system clipboard, so when you delete the line, it gets copied into your clipboard, then when you paste it, that line is pasted, so there's no change. You can set vim.opt.clipboard = "" in your nvim config to stop this.
I've had endless issues with gmail and outlook, everything being absolutely fantastic on all checkers and spamminess ratings etc and still end up bouncing or being junked, nightmare for over a decade personally.
I tried this the other week and the performance was so bad it wasn't usable. It took 20 minutes to get to the setup, and the setup couldn't proceed. I was using VirtualBox with Ubuntu 22.

Qualcomm chips are using ARM as well, but the way the Apple Chips are built is just different so that would require some extra work to emulate the OS.
Don't get your hopes up people. On more recent macOS versions even the emulated USB controller will give you problems and passing a USB soundcard through is going to be a problem. GPU passthrough will depend on your motherboard, so your mileage may vary.
Does it run? Yes. Is it usable? Not so much.
To be fair regarding the cost of Apple desktop machines, you can get a used Mac Mini M1 for like $400. Would I rather have a real computer? Yeah but if you just need an Apple box for testing it's doable
Yeah, the "Apple Tax" is hardly a thing anymore for many of their models. (In fact, it's arguable that it's the laptops now that exhibit it more than the desktops do, so long as you ignore the egregious Mac Pro.)
@@oogami256the laptops are usually better value compared to Windows machines when you consider the whole package. It's always a good keyboard, a good trackpad, a good speaker, good hinges, etc. On every single Windows machine I purchased, there's always some drawback.
You can also sign up for an iCloud email on an iphone. Im pretty sure you can find a 4 year old beater phone with a cracked screen for $50 to sign up for an email.
The check to see if it's a good serial number. Is that apple calls it invalid¿?
Given the hisrory of apple, this checks out.
Did this last week - works great, GPU passes easily too. Unfortunately my mouse and keyboard don't pass, so troubleshooting that
Wow, super interesting!
Used this years ago on my Arch setup.
Could you use a serial you already own (like an old iMac)? But I guess it may flag something in Apple if you have 2024 specs against a 2014 iMac 😅
For once, I was actually ahead of Mental Outlaw making a tutorial 😊
Better Tittle:Defeating A Corpeations walled garden
Then just make a thumbnail of jumping over a wall with the apple logo on it
What do you think of the new snapdragon arm windows laptops coming out and the spyware they subtly included, marketed as a new ai feature. Recall. Although i love the idea of arm laptops with windows 😂
Hackintosh its a huge waste of time. If apple dont want to become open to devs, them dosent deserve devs making products for them platform
What is the actual max. number of mail accounts you can create with one serial number? Also I guess there will be many future unhappy Apple customers who can't create an Apple-ID on their brand new iPhone because they get assigned these Hackintosh serial numbers?
Tried to figure out how to host MAC VM yesterday but no luck till I saw this video. Starting to think your account is a honeypot
Any tips to improve the performance?
algorithm. Wondered what you've been up to.
running the most proprietary operating system on the least proprietary operating system is dangerously based.
4:50 Quick heads up you didn't properly paste the MAC address you copied, in vim when you delete something it replaces what you currently have in your clipboard buffer, making you paste what you just deleted
I don’t think apples desktops are that overpriced the Mac mini starts at £595 in the uk. For that price it’s very competitive with many pcs especially for Single threaded applications
I would be interested on content about debuging delivering emails to providers. What did you find with was the issue with the applecloud mail?
didn't work becuase in my vm, I can't see anything inside the EFI folder. it's completely empty.
4:44 NVIM has started copying to the system clipboard, so when you delete the line, it gets copied into your clipboard, then when you paste it, that line is pasted, so there's no change.
You can set vim.opt.clipboard = "" in your nvim config to stop this.
I've had endless issues with gmail and outlook, everything being absolutely fantastic on all checkers and spamminess ratings etc and still end up bouncing or being junked, nightmare for over a decade personally.
May I ask what operating systems you use? Thanks !
I can already see that there are patches missing for the dock since it has those white lines over it.
this is very old news, 10 years ago you could generete valid apple serials for hackintosh purposes
Pretty sure u can edit json and plist files on a Mac with stock Text Edit
Some poor kids gonna get a macbook for christmas and be told he cant registered because his serial number has already been used 😂
virt-manager is deprecating use cockpit-machines instead
Are you sure that DKIM & DMARC is configured ? some organizations require incoming mail to be complaint with dmarc
Great video
I tried this the other week and the performance was so bad it wasn't usable. It took 20 minutes to get to the setup, and the setup couldn't proceed.
I was using VirtualBox with Ubuntu 22. System in question was an HP 7770 workstation laptop, so it was more than capable. I guess QEMU in a VM is not feasible?
What are the tools at the very beginning for checking the health of your email address o.o?
This is why literally everyone suggests not self-hosting email
If you need macos its worth to buy a mac. Btw M1 pro is still a great cpu. Its cold, its fast, and worth every $ you spend on it.
Is sonoma broken on osx-kvm? It always kernel panics on boot for me
We'll escape "Dos Macos" with this one
Self hosting email is a fools errand
Any chance to improve the performance when using a NVIDIA gpu? I was able to install it but performance is really bad.
The establishment would ban self-hosting if they were able to.
