Ok I know this is weird, but this is probably the only place I can ask this. I live in China and here they have huge 2nd hand/broken/sparepart pc and laptop markets. Imagine a street vegetable market just for pc. Strolling through one yesterday i saw a 2912 macbook, all working except :
-
hard drive is busted (clicking sound) and starts one time out of 4
-
hard drive has windows 7 installed on it (wut?)
-
4 GB Ram
-
a couple keys missing
-
needs a new power cord
After bargaining the guy is willing to let it go for some 60$. I want it. I calculated the spareparts to put it back in shape as an extra 40-50$.
Keys are an easy fix and I am thinking i can get an original used mac hard drive (or maybe a SSD?) for the laptop. Since i would get a MacBook without a usable hard drive or OS I am thinking of installing Hackintosh on it.
So here come the noob questions :
- Where can I find good instructions to do it? Specific for this model I mean. I looked hackintosh.com and cannot figure it out
- Which version you guys recommend ?
- What about drivers ?
- can I install rEFInd on it ?
- what about software I might want to install ?
Thank you guys in advance for the replies
