Hi guys, I'm using chimera and I'm very glad to tonymacx86 website and all people here for these fabulous information you built to provide a guidance to make a good hackintosh system. but....
chimera/chameleon are very good but far from perfect. the approach it uses make easy to do a "almost real" mac for several hardware configuration but fail to make an utopic real mac with restrict hardware (the most compatible ones).
I have been study clover, but i didnt try it yet. on paper, the concept is very good. if the builder knows what to do, he can do all configurations/patch/tweaks on clover and install a clean OSX on in, with all features from a real mac without any fear to install system updates or someday things go wrong and all your work be compromised.
more than a simple bootloader, i understand clover as a "layer" to convert PC hardware to MAC, adjusting the parameters on the fly and make OSX run without modification.
am I right with this assumption?
If I am right, would be great if clover community develop a guide (or an application) to help build the config.plist with a database of motherboards, cpu and video cards, like tonymac has with DSDT tables.
there is a several config parameters for several hardware issues that could be organized on a database by motherboard (for exemple), this will be VERY HELPFULL to future builders.
what do you think about it? is it a valid concept to guide the community?
