My Latitude 7370 is pretty different. It's the same m7-6Y75, but with 8 gigs of ram. The audio is: Intel Skylake-U/Y PCH - High Definition Audio (unsure about this.) The network is: Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260 (a/b/g/n = Wi-Fi 4/ac = Wi-Fi 5), Bluetooth 4.2 It also has only 256 GB storage of NVME And I'm pretty unsure about my BIOS. (it is in repair sadly, cuz of overheating issue)

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

It will probably work except for the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. There is an Intel driver out there but I have no idea if it would work.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

Me neither. And I don't rlly need Bluetooth, so Bluetooth isn't necessary. Although I also found this. https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm

and also, if i wanna install mac os, i think it needs internet idk to install and that would be a problem cuz i have no ethernet things

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

You can make a usb flash drive installer so no internet connection would be required for the install.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

oh. so like i do it through the normal way of making the usb or is it something else?

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

Normal way the same as a real Mac. If you create the EFI on the same usb drive you can boot and install from the same drive.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

the only thing is, i have no mac. so that wouldn't be possible

mx4address commented 3 years ago

maybe in a vm i could do so, but it'll take up a whole ton of space

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

There are ways of creating it on a PC I think but I haven't tried it.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

like with transmac for example? idk if it works but i thought about it

gibMacOS seems to be quite a common way of creating it. Again I have never tried it as I have a real Mac.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

it looks suspicious as the mac os stuff doesn't weight much. unsure about this i have a screenshot. immagine

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

That's just the recovery part not the installer.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

so welp that ain't the installer so that won't be working idk.

mx4address commented 3 years ago

and also, should i choose itlwm.kext or AirportItlwm.kext

gazzmanzx6 commented 3 years ago

Can't help with that as I have never used it.
