A Python-based project revolving around Acidanthera's OpenCorePkg and Lilu for both running and unlocking features in macOS on supported and unsupported Macs. Our project's main goal is to breathe new life into Macs no longer supported by Apple, allowing for the installation and usage of macOS Big Sur and newer on machines as old as 2007.

OSX-KVM is a collection of scripts, firmware files, and documentation for running macOS virtual machines on Linux with QEMU and KVM. It uses OpenCore and OVMF components to create a Virtual Hackintosh without requiring a Mac host. The project can fetch installers for multiple macOS generations, prepare installation media, and guide users through the complete virtual machine setup. It supports Intel VT-x and AMD SVM hosts, although newer macOS releases impose additional CPU instruction requirements. ...

...It includes detailed instructions for installing macOS, configuring hardware components, and troubleshooting common issues such as graphics acceleration, Wi-Fi, and power management. The repository is tailored specifically to the Surface Pro 7, addressing its unique hardware constraints and compatibility challenges. It uses tools such as OpenCore to manage the boot process and emulate necessary Apple hardware environments. The project also highlights the limitations of running macOS on unsupported hardware, including partial functionality for certain components.

This is a fork of Leoyzen's OpenCore image for QEMU/KVM, which I've extended to add a build system for automatically building all of the required files from source code, and to keep up with the latest OpenCore changes. It is currently tested to boot macOS Catalina, Big Sur, and Monterey, but will likely also boot older versions of macOS.
