Yes. MultiBeast just puts everything together and helps you install all the required stuff from one package. It still installs Clover. You still have an EFI folder. The end result is the same.
(*Note: MultiBeast installs hackintosh kexts to /Library/Extensions/. I keep mine in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/.)
- The Z370 chipset provide 26 USB ports.
- Most motherboards do not use all 26, but macOS will see all 26 with the use of USBInjectAll and 15 port limit patches.
- However, macOS only utilizes and expects 15 ports.
- Therefore, we have to bring the total port count from 26 down to 15 and tell macOS which 15 of the 26 are active.
- There are multiple methods to achieve this. The method I use is to first define all the ports, then use a "flag" in config.plist to exclude 11 ports to bring the total down to 15.
- A USB 3 port counts as two ports because it has (1) a USB 3 port and (2) a USB 2 port.
- The USB 3.1 gen 2 ports are not counted towards the 15 ports on Z370 because they are not from the Z370 chipset.
Even though you have the non-Wi-Fi version of this motherboard, you still could have used my EFI folder. You can also use my USB SSDT file.
Now it begins to make much more sense, thanks a lot for all this info! So essentially I could just pick from your EFI folder and move things to /Library/Estensions/ ?
