Installing on Windows Laptop - Sc00by - Feb 10, 2016
Hello
Looking to Dual Boot OS X El Capitan on my Dell laptop.
Is there any way to obtain the operating system other than downloading it via the Mac App Store?
I don't have full access to a Mac laptop at the moment so I can't download it atm.
I just need it to create a bootable USB drive.

Not too sure about El Capitan, but I know Yosemite works from here http://www.hackintosh.zone/

You can probably find it online but I think it's pretty difficult to make a hackintosh without having access to a Mac cause you'll need it to properly format the installation USB drive.

its not hard, theres a trial for a tool to use, you need to do snow leopard first tho cause yosemite is a picky shit, basically look for the tut for snow leopard usb on windows and install snow leopard then use the mac store on the install to upgrade to el captain

I turned my PC into El Capitan. On one HDD I have Windows 10 and the other El Capitan.
Download VirtualBox, download a MAC iso and download El Capitan from the app store through there.
I installed mine Vanilla wise instead of using a Distro.
Search up TonyMac or MacBreaker. (TonyMac is what I recommend). You'll need a USB Stick and it's best if you have two HDD's

Build a VM of Mac OS then follow some tutorials on YouTube for how to get a iso... I have a El Capitan VM... Bootloader is required for using App Store etc so it might mess up your PC... I would link my post on se7ensins but I cant. I would red omens going there though, you will learn a lot.

Yeah i've kind of given up for now. I mainly wanted it on my laptop, but I just threw linux on there and i'm falling in love with it to be honest!
I just wish i could run I-Message!
