Hello! I cant seem to get my T420 to boot the MacOS install correctly. Installed using Ventura and made sure to follow all instructions exactly. Would be awesome if you had any ideas!

I am trying Monterey sense your other repo for t440s says Ventura is still beta.

EDIT: Monterey doesnt seem to be detecting the disk. Strange

I can say that I was successfully able to load Big Sur with this OC, but the video memory is only 5MB and I am working to figure out how to increase it.

But I can confirm with marcocet that Ventura installs to disk fine, but when booting into the installer showing time to go before completion just keeps panicing.

I can confirm I got the HD3000 working successfully with OpenCore Legacy Patcher. I'm going to tinker with Ventura / Sonoma, but at least I have a more current macOS to have on my t420 hackintosh. Also, the base Broadcom wifi card won't work with the typical kext.

How did you make it work? I've successfully installed Monterey. After installing and root-patching with OpenCore Legacy Patcher, intelhd3000 is still at 4 mb. I got a message "SIP is enabled (Required:0x802 or higher)" and "Currently booted SIP: (0x3e7)." My hardware is also i5-2540m with a SMBIOS of MacBookPro 8,1. Should I reinstall?
