Iatkos Ml2 Amd Guide ((BETTER))

Guide--Creating a OS X installer(Iatkos ML2)from windows only.Note:This guide is for those who don't have access to a mac and for some reasons cannot install the retail image on virtualbox.What you will need::::1.A Windows PC.2.Two USB Flash drives.One of at least 8 GB and the other of atleast 1 GB.3.dmg2img,Win32diskimager,and bootdiskutility.4.Last but not the least,an Iatkos_ML2 image based on OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.(I cannot provide you the link to download Iatkos. You are on your own in downloading this one.)NOTE : Iatkos distributions are the modified copies of Mac OS X made to be able to work on a PC. I STRONGLY ADVISE USE THIS TEMPORARILY to set up OS X on your computer and then create a installer from a LEGACY PURCHASED retail image. For more info on Iatkos visit The Steps:::::1.Connect the 1 GB USB stick on your computer.2.Run Bootdiskutility,select your USB from the list and click on Format disk.The utility will install clover and chameleon bootloaders on your USB drive.3.Decompress the dmg2img folder and move the Iatkos_ML2.dmg file in the folder containing the dmg2img.exe file.4.Right click on the folder containing dmg2img.exe while HOLDING DOWN SHIFT KEY i.e Shift+Right click and select "Open command window here" from the context menu.5.On the command window type the following without the quotes "dmg2img Iatkos_ML2.dmg" and press enter.This will create a Iatkos_ML2.img file in the same folder.(see screenshot)6.Now plugin your 8 GB USB drive,Decompress the win32diskimager folder and run the win32diskimager.exe file.Select the Iatkos_ML2.img file created in previous step and your 8 GB USB drive and click on Write.Ignore the warnings.This will write the OS X installer on the USB drive.(see screenshot)7.Now plugin both your USB drives on the computer on which you want to install OS X.On the boot prompt SELECT THE 1 GB USB DRIVE.Clover bootloader will be loaded and your OS X installer USB will show up on the boot devices list.DONT CLICK DIRECTLY ON THE INSTALLER.CLICK ON "BOOT UEFI MENU FROM CLOVER" FIRST AND THEN SELECT YOUR INSTALLER.Also don't change any of the clover settings.OS X installer must boot now on your computer.You will see that the installer language is in Russian,you can change that easily by clicking on the first box.NOTE:Chameleon bootloader cannot detect the USB created by this method.

Hi , i Did everything as told in this guide, but it does not load Iotkas from the the other USB in clover. When i click right mouse on the boot from external i also see only 1 usb regocnized. But in the normal boot menu it finds it. What am i missing ? also i use the most up to date version of Bootdiskutility , could that be the problem as you use a older one ? Thanks in advance

I thought I would post an updated guide for creating a Vanilla Mavericks Installer USB with plenty of photos, seeing that IATKOS M is no longer supported here and many new users from Windows still rely on "distros". This is a compilation of information from posts found scattered throughout this forum but may not be obvious to hackintosh virgins .

The work started with EFI emulation in the form of David Elliot (dfe)'s modified version of Boot-132 called "Darwin/x86", which has a "FakeEFI" system that emulates EFI.[60] In early November 2007, a group of hackers (fronted by a Russian hacker known as Netkas), using Elliot's code, developed a method[61] of emulating an EFI environment using a specially modified Darwin bootloader.[62] In practical terms, this meant that regular PCs meeting a set of hardware requirements could now be "seen" as real Macintosh computers by the OS, allowing the use of unmodified, "stock" Apple kernels (as long as the CPU supports it) and thus giving more transparent and reliable operation. Several methods for real world deployment of this innovative solution have arisen around the Internet. An explanation of this achievement along with a usage guide was provided by the website DigitMemo.com.[63] 2b1af7f3a8
