# Installation Guide
## COMING SOON
## macOS Big Sur
For the mean time follow the [Dortania Installation Guide](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/installer-guide/) but replace the whole OC and BOOT folders in EFI with the ones in this repo.
**For this release it is essential you use macOS to create the install USB. An install USB created in Linux or windows won't work. If you don't have a real mac or another hackintosh you always use a VM (See Note no. 2)**
**This is a simple and quick summary of the install USB creation**
1. Download gibMacOS: https://github.com/corpnewt/gibMacOS
2. Right click then choose open on gibMacOS.command (it will launch in terminal)
3. Choose a number from the list provided (Big Sur will probably be number 1 in the list as 11.0.1 Public release)
4. It will download Big Sur (12.19 GB) and it will place the contents in gibMacOS folder under macOS Downloads/publicrelease/11.0.1 macOS Big Sur.
5. Open the InstallAssistant.pkg that will extract the installer to your Applications folder
6. Format your usb drive to Mac OS Extentended (Journaled) with GUID partition scheme
7. Now run: `sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume`
MyVolume will be replaced by the name you gave to your usb when formatting it. Or you could name the usb as MyVolume when you were formatting.
This will create the bootable usb that works on a real mac.
8. Now you can proceed with "Setting up OpenCore's EFI environment" from [here](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/installer-guide/mac-install.html#setting-up-the-installer).
9. Copy the OC and BOOT files from my EFI and fireup the installer.
10. Select Install macOS Big Sur from the boot menu and not the recovery partition.
The [Dortania Installation Guide](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/installer-guide/) is more detailed and you easily refer to it for more details. I haven't gotten time to write a detailed guide.
## Note:
## 1. If you are installing Catalina or Mojave it is important that you disable Airportitlwm.kext in Kernel/Add/20 of Config.plist and enable itlwm.kext instead. Read Post Install #4.
