Hi everyone, I'm about to update my Customac (currently running Mojave) to Monterey, doing a fresh install following Dortania Opencore Guide and I have some doubts, I read some other post in the forum about it but still I don't get it:
- I don't have Windows installed, and I will not install it after the update: the USBToolBox page says that USBToolBox is not recommended for MacOS, should I use USBMap instead as suggested by the guide?
- the Opencore guide suggests to map USB ports before installation, should I map with USBMap before the installation or is it a post install only operation?
- If I should do it after the installation, is there some kext I need to put in the USB pendrive EFI folder (and config.plist) before installation?
Another doubt not concerning USB mapping but BT/WiFi:
- I have a broadcom BCM94360CS2 card, will it work without kexts (it should be a native Apple card, right?) or do I need some kext from the list? (it seems they all are for non-native BT/WiFi cards)
Thanks a lot in advance for the help!
