Hi, does anybody know what version of os x that can run on the HP 2730p?
Hi, does anybody know what version of os x that can run on the HP 2730p?
basically, look at this:Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)
Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution
For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768
Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.
Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"

I once tried that in Leopard 10.5.7, the os worked without the GMA.. hopefully someone can port it from linux to os x.8086:2a42 is GMA 4500MHD, which is not supported by any version of OS X.

yeah, i had the same problem on my hp 8560p, but it could be solved. also i have a clover problem on the 8560p, and that is, when you start up the computer from the hdd on clover, after the boot screen completes, it shows a black screen. hopefully os x sierra will fix that (wait did i just say os x sierra its macos sierra)...Of course you can run without proper graphics support, but OS X is very painful without QE/CI.
Don't plan on someone porting the drivers from Linux. The hardware is very old/undesireable, and Apple doesn't document the graphics driver interfaces.
