Windows 64 bit LLVM\Clang 8.0.0 (trunk 350062)

Thursday, 03 December 2019

Four stage bootstrapped compiler, initially based on Mingw-w64 to create an instrumented LLVM, fed back into Mingw-w64 to create a (handcrafted) PGO LLVM, which is then bootstrapped to create a "pure" LLVM/clang.

• Mingw-w64 x86_64-8.1.0-release-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0

• clang version 8.0.0 (trunk 350062)
  Target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
  Thread model: posix

NB: USB controller 1 must be of type USB3.1 (USB 1.1 is deprecated under macOS Ventura)

Procedure is quite simple:

• Attached a working VMWare workstation - IPSW OS.dmg used - Ventura macOS 13.1-22C65 VM (vmdk) to an existing Monterey ESXi VM (spoofed to iMac17,1 for compatibility with OpenCore Legacy Patcher)

• https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

• Satisfy build requirements: eg: pip3 install requests ...

• Execute: OpenCore-Patcher.command

• Create EFI

• Copy created EFI to EFI partition

• Made sure that it was possible to boot Monterey from opencore.efi; then with addition of NoAVXFSCompressionTypeZlib-AVXpel.kext and CryptexFixup.kext was able to boot macOS Ventura.

• iMac18,3 profile used in VMX: basic requirement for macOS Ventura

Generic OpenCore macOS installer - ESXi 7 & VMW 17

1. Create macOS VM - Hard disk at least 40Gb (USB 3.1 required)

2. Add second hard disk: OC.ESXi.vmdk (ESXi 7 requires this to be an IDE Controller - ESP created under Windows! OR
   vmkfstools -i OC.ESXi.vmdk -d zeroedthick OC-2.ESXi.vmdk for SATA compatibility)

3. Add virtual macOS Monterey/Ventura installer iso

4. If installing Ventura add the following to .vmx, make sure there are no duplicate entries.

smc.present = "TRUE"
smc.version = "0"
board-id.reflectHost = "FALSE"
board-id = "Mac-BE088AF8C5EB4FA2"
hw.model.reflectHost = "FALSE"
hw.model = "iMac18,3"

5. Boot into VM EFI bios, boot from file: OC.ESXi.vmdk\OC.ESXi-f001.vmdk\EFI\OC\OpenCore.efi (locate it!)

6. Boot installer iso from OpenCore GUI

7. Install macOS
