After a tremendous amount of time I finally install Big Sur on my old core 2 duo system without using a vm I'm happy what I accomplish today as a beginner on hackintoshing !
Note: Don't do this kind of project on your main system always do it on your backup system.
what steps I used to install Big Sur 11.4
I Used 2 HDD For This Installation But This Is My Preferred Procedure cuz sometimes I'm to clumsy I always forgot what I'm doing, You can use one HDD if you want :)
- Download High Sierra on Windows
- And Flash It Using BalenaEtcher
- Boot and Install High Sierra
- Install The Required Kext For High Sierra
- And Use USBMap to map your USB This is important unless you will have a no functioning USB on Big Sur 11.4 Since 11.3 Broke XCHIPortlimit and USBInjectall.kext
- Now This is the fun part!
- Follow Dortania's OpenCore Guide "Note you will need to use OpenCore Legacy Patcher for the Legacy Video Patch"
- Install your kext to EFI/OpenCore/Kext
- After That Boot Your USB
- Then Select Install macOS Big Sur
