       | Happy you are posting about hackintosh but generally sharing EFI
       | folders isn't at all best practice. Anyone who runs a hackintosh
       | should learn how to build a proper config.plist with propertree
       | for their own setup. Spread knowledge not scripts :)

         | Any references to tutorials for said proper config.plist
         | designs?

           | For parts of the config.plist, you can find generators, but
           | when installing on raw hardware you will probably be
           | combining presets based on your system specifics.

         | Then OP would have 90% of their Github issues queue consist of
         | "can't get XYZ to work" that's because something in the plist
         | is broken and troubleshooting that can get _very_ painful and
         | annoying.

       | I would love to see it compete with Microsoft Windows.

             | precisely one Windows laptop. All other machines were Macs.
