HACKINTOSH

(EFI) Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 / AMD 5600H / Sonoma 14.7.2

Hi guys, a few days ago I hacked my Lenovo AMD 5600H to monterey and unexpectedly upgraded it straight to sonoma 14.7.2 smoothly. So I’m sharing the EFI for anyone with the same configuration to refer to :v

Xcode, Docker runs fine (using virtualbox instead of hypervisor 🙁)

Sleep tested plugged in overnight 🙂, still good, no overheating when sleeping
