# T420 Hackintosh Mojave
- from [this guide](https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/285678-lenovo-thinkpad-t420-with-uefi-only/?page=20&tab=comments#comment-1952283)
- efi from [this repo](https://github.com/tluck/Lenovo-T420-Clover)
### **BIOS SETTINGS**
- Recommended is BIOS v1.46 (and stay on 1.46 if you want use a modded bios - but there are v1.48 and v1.49 mods now)
- Recommended: reset to defaults. Most defaults settings will work - but check these settings:
- Set Config / Serial ATA (SATA) / SATA = AHCI
- Set Security / Memory Protection / Execution Prevention = Enabled
- Disable Discrete Nvidia/Optimus (use integrated HD 3000 only - unless you really know what you are doing!)
- Note: The custom DSDT is based off BIOS v1.46 (flashed with whitelist mod or original)
### **STEPS**
1. Download MacOS Mojave.app on App Store
2. Partition USB Drive (GPT/USB/MacOSExtended)
3. Create Bootable Drive With This Command --->
```
sudo "/Applications/Install macOS Mojave.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia" --volume /Volumes/USB
```
4. Install Clover on the USB
- Run espmount.bash to mount ESP on USB Drive
- Copy the EFI directory to the ESP directory of the USB
- Note: run "diskutil list" on the command line to find your USB and HD disk devices
```
sudo mkdir /Volumes/ESP-USB
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk1s1 /Volumes/ESP-USB
cp -a ~/Downloads/Lenovo-T420-Clover-master/EFI/ /Volumes/ESP-USB/EFI
```
