If you want to run Mac OS X without
paying too much for a Mac machine, then a Hackintosh might be the
perfect solution for you. You can get the latest version of OS ie;
Mac OS X Mountain Lion with in your PC. Here we are discussing the
requirements and steps to install Mountain Lion on your PC.
According to
Apple, it is must to have Snow Leopard before before switching to
Mountain Lion. But. with a "distro" (pirated copies of Mac
OS X) like iAtkos, you can jump to Mountain Lion.
Requirements:
Requirements:
- A Windows computer: The machine where iAtkos will be downloaded and setup. It should possess a DVD/Bluray burner.
- A Hackintosh-compatible computer: Not every computer works with Mac OS X so, you must ensure its compatibility with OS X. AMD processors and older 32-bit Intel processors are not supported.
- A hard drive with at least 10 GB of free space: OS X Mountain Lion needs a little less than 10 GB of free space for its installation so, the drive must have free space greater than this limit . I recommend to allocate at least 50 GB of space.
- iAtkos ML2 (Free): Download the most popular distro of OS X Mountain Lion. I won't go into details. You will require to write iAtkos onto a USB drive or DVD, and boot your computer from iAtkos to install Mac OS X.
- A dual layer DVD, Bluray disc (8 GB or larger): Write iAtkos onto a dual-layer DVD, Bluray disc, or USB drive. If you are setting up iAtkos from Windows, you have to use a dual-layer DVD or Bluray disc. Normal DVDs don't work because iAtkos is too large.
- TransMac($48, 2-week free trial): If you're using a Windows computer to set up iAtkos, you need to use TransMac to write ("burn") the iAtkos disk image file onto your dual-layer DVD or Bluray disc. You don't actually need to purchase TransMac; the free trial works fine.
- Stellar Drive Clone ($39): This apps help you to wri te the iAtkos disk image onto your USB drive.
- Multibeast: Multibeast is a collection of kext files
(Kernel Extension) which need to be run after the initial
installation. Please make sure that you get the newest version 5 of
Multibeast, not the older versions.
