I am looking to update my OS from Mountain Lion. I am assuming I cannot jump all the way to sierra correct?
If that is the case what can I update to and can someone point my in the direction of where directions for that are.
I am not proficient with the inner workings of my hackintosh. I simply bought the right parts and followed directions on here to the letter and it worked. So I am gonna need detailed directions.
Thanks!
 
If you want to go to Sierra, better to install clean instead of overwriting ML. The difference is mach_kernel in the root vs kernel in /kernels for the "Parks" versions of OS X.
You will also need to change boot loaders from Chimera/Chameleon to Clover.

Since you failed to follow the forum rules regarding hardware, your profile and/or creating a sig that is as far as I can advise you.
 
Hello everybody.
Looking into the same - an upgrade from Mountain Lion to Sierra. Would be very interested to do a direct update for not having to install all software once again
But also very interested on tips how to do a clean install.
Cheers!
