Hello everyone. I’m working to install OS X Maverick on my old desktop pc from 2010 (I give you the specs below), using the latest OpenCore version.

CPU: Intel Core i3-540
GPU: Integrated HD Graphics (Iron Lake)
MOTHERBOARD: Intel h57 (OEM Packard Bell) [not sure]

I decided to install OS X Mavericks, because with later versions I have some problems with USB Mapping (I will probably update to High Sierra in the future). The problem is that, as you probably know, the iGPU is not supported, and in fact when I try to boot the installer, after the verbose I get stuck at a white screen (everything else is perfect).

The only way I have found to resolve this problem is preventing AppleIntelHDGraphics.kext and AppleIntelHDGraphicsFB.kext from being loaded. I’ve tried to add them in config.plist/kernel/block, but doesn’t work. So I would like to build a kext that overrides IO catalog entries (in order to disable the two kexts). But I’m not familiar with this things (i don’t want to break dependencies).

How can I do that? Thanks in advance :)

Thanks a lot, it worked! Now i only have another little problem. When i try to download OS X from Recovery i get the error "Your device or computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance". The problem is that i can't edit the network preferences (because i'm in recovery).
