Yo guys, the title says what Id like to know.

The thing is, I have really no option to create an usb installer with a mac. But I still have my original SL install disk from my imac, that I had back then. My idea was to install that and from there, go for the sierra installer. But I read something, that integrated intel graphics arent supported.

Am I right with that or is there still a chance to get SL to work with INTEL Graphics HD 630 ?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Propably im just dumb. It says "INTEL GMA GRAPHICS" are not supported. So as I googled that, it seems that Intel GMA is just certain type of integrated graphic units. But the Intel HD 630 is just NOT a GMA unit. RIGHT?

Anyways: Can I get it done or not?

You need at least 10.12.6 for native KabyLake graphics support.
With 10.11.6, you can spoof KabyLake graphics (and CPU) as Skylake.

No. Snow Leopard has no support for Kaby Lake. You really want MacOS Sierra 10.12.6.

Do you have a friend that use a Mac that you can borrow for some time to create a Sierra Unibeast USB stick?
