So I'm planning to go back to Mac OS due to the majority of projects I do(eg: Laravel). My last hackintosh with my last laptop, Samsung R580, was Mavericks. My sister decided to give her laptop to me since she barely use it. Its a Dell Inspiron 15R 5521. The specs are on my signature. Can someone guide me through installing Yosemite on my laptop?

Read compatibility overview: http://www.tonymacx86.com/laptop-compatibility/106791-laptop-compatibility.html

If you have UEFI capability, use Clover: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...oting-os-x-installer-laptops-clover-uefi.html

You can use Clover without UEFI (and you may want to try that), but I don't cover a legacy install in that guide.

Unibeast/Chimera (or Chameleon), read here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...-booting-os-x-installer-laptops-unibeast.html

Also, you will find many of the stickies here useful: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-laptop-support/
 
Hey there Sir @RehabMan. So I followed your Clover tutorial but everytime I boot the usb I get this graphical glitch on verbose mode together with a no sign and when booting normal I still get the no sign.. can you please help me? Thanks!

Did you add GenericUSBXHCI.kext to Clover/kexts/Other?
 
It is mentioned in the guide.

Hey there Sir RehabMan. I'm done with installing Yosemite and it did booted successfully all thanks to you! :D Soo, what do I do next? I'm really back to being a newbie with this since its been a while since I did Hackintoshing, back to square one for me. Can you do a list for me of what to do next? :D Much much thanks awhile ago for that super quick reply. :D

Deal with each problem one at a time. There is a lot of good information in the sticky threads in this forum, and even more information revealed with search.

BTW, is your profile accurate? Pretty rare to have Ivy CPU on a 6-series chipset with laptops...

Yes sir, its pretty much accurate. I used DXDIAG and CPU Z when I was still using Windows. Umm I'm currently doing your DSDT/SSDT tutorial and I've hit a bumped. When I did iasl in terminal it said this:
