Thank you for your great work! I've just bought one CoreBook X i5-8259U. I've read your waning. So can I check what version I have? Thanks

You can easily judge by the color of the motherboard. Green motherboard --> new. Black motherboard --> old.

@weachy I've done an usb stick with Monterey and your EFI. Setted BIOS options as your Readme, but when it startup the installer I got a STOP Sign with support.apple.com/mac/startup.

I'm missing something or I got a new motherboard version? Thanks

I realize the SN of new model notebook is starting with "JCorBX". As a comparison, the old one is starting with "CBookX"

Hello, just bought a JCorBX model as well. Unfortunately this was supposed to be my first OpenCore attempt so I can only help by testing. Audio chip seems the same as old model (Realtek), so maybe it is fixable, don't know about battery.
