UPDATE: This was removed earlier because it's technically piracy, but HackinDoge suggested I put this back up anyway (thanks!). This is for those Windows users who just aren't able to get access to a Mac, and don't want to use highly modified distros either. This is a vanilla installer package, fully Apple, and the only change is the preinstalled EFI Clover boot loader which doesn't affect OS X itself.
Hey guys, I've made this kind-of-tutorial for installing El Capitan on your PC, especially for those who don't want to use a Mac. I've made an El Capitan Install USB that can be restored onto a USB using my included HDD Raw Copy Tool utility for Windows, and Disk Utility on Mac. The guide itself is a PDF in the Mega drive link below.
The disk image is split into 11 files (I have bad upload speed, sorry smile emoticon ) which you can download and combine using 7-zip on Windows and 7zX on Mac. Essential kexts and the required software is in the respective OS folders. The link containing the disk image, the software and the guide is in this link.
For mounting your EFI partition: For Mac, download Clover Configurator and use the "Mount EFI" option.
For Windows, follow these instructions after restoring the disk image to your USB:
Open administrator CMD, and type the following commands:
diskpart list disk (note the number of your USB disk) select disk # (your USB disk number) select partition 0 (or use list partition to find your EFI partition and select accordingly) assign X: (to get drive letter)Download Explorer++ http://ift.tt/1AzspQl (Win Explorer can't open EFI partitions)
Use it to open your EFI partition and copy the required kexts and HFSPlus.efi. (please download this from here) which you then place in the required folders (HFSPlus.efi in drivers64UEFI, kexts in Clover/Kexts/10.11)
Good luck with your hack!
