Golden Gate (macOS 27) image builder for MacBookPro9,2
// readme
hao-patcher
hao-patcher builds disk images of macOS 27 (Golden Gate) for Intel x86_64 Macs. The current build is macOS 27.2.1 (26B131).
macOS 27 does not support Intel Macs, so the image is built in layers: Golden Gate’s own System and Data, the Intel kernel extensions, drivers and boot files macOS 26 (Tahoe) still ships, legacy hardware support from OpenCore Legacy Patcher, a set of compatibility fixes, and hao-runtime, which runs Golden Gate’s ARM-only programs on the Intel CPU.
