So I built my Hackintosh in May and have it up and running on Yosemite right now, I used the TonyMac guide back then (Unibeast + Chimera + Multibeast). I haven't done much on the computer install wise as I never got around to hacking iMessage to work. I want to upgrade to El Capitan and it seems like people are using clover now (which does seem to support iMessage, which is great). My install is on a 500GB SSD that is partitioned in 2 halves (I dual boot windows). Would I have an easier time just nuking my OS X partition and starting fresh? I don't have any documents or anything on the OS X partition that I care about. I mainly just want to update and make sure I'm running whatever is going to make everything work and be easy to update going forward. My basic setup: Intel Core i5-4590 Gigabyte LGA 1150 H97 Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 Mini ITX Apple Broadcom WiFi + Bluetooth native card.

enMTW posted:Nuking and starting fresh would be smart. I have a brief El Capitan guide a page or two back. I believe I used UEFI to install Windows. Losing Windows is slightly more annoying since I have a digitally downloaded game installed on there, but it sounds like things work much more natively now if bootcamp is usable, so it might be worth the hassle.

enMTW posted:Yeah. This is the last time you would have to screw around. Boot Camp partitions the drive for you, you boot a Rufus-created Windows installation drive in non-EFI mode (boot it directly through Clover or select it as PX in the boot menu) and install to the partition named 'BOOTCAMP'. Done. Welp, guess I have a project brewing for the weekend/next week. Thanks for the information, crazy how much it's all changed in the last 5 months...
