Is there a resource, wiki, etc. that will explain the basics of hackintosh and how this works? I am interested in learning
more details about how it is done underneath the covers.

I am interested in details and an explanation of:
efi and the files required for booting a normal mac
normal mac OS booting and the processes used for hardware setup in the os
then, the differences and changes to the system and processes that are done when hackintoshing a pc.
(for example: what does clover change in the files, What does unibeast do to the installer?)

Thanks for any links or information.

Edit: I have found this link at apple that describes some of what I am interested in.
