Hello all !

I wish to give a huge THANK YOU for this place, and for all the great tutorials !

What can I say about me ?
I'm a long time computers user, able to update some Android phones, I also have a few computers at my disposal (Sandies & Ivies ones).
Of course, I also have an i3-12100F for my daily routines.

I must admit the fact : making a Mackintosh is not so easy as I though ! Tried 3 times, failed 3 times ! But I'm brave, so I will go on !

=> I have an old HP Compaq Elite 8300 All-in-one (Ivy 3770), and I'm curious about to know if MacOS will run on it, as this computer has no real use right now.

Hello and Welcome to EliteMac86!

Nothing is easy, things takes time and patience. If you really need, you'll do it. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.

As replied in your first post, you should be good to go. You've already completed the first phase - building a correct EFI. xD

Regarding the compatibility with macOS, yes that machine is able to run macOS!
