macOS 10.14 Mojave on Unsupported Macs Thread

[Patrice Brousseau]

I installed Mojave on a MacBook Air 11" mid-2011 using DosDude patching. I also installed OCLP to facilitate the last updates, which did not work with DosDude alone.
Is there any advantage apart from updates that would make you prefer running one over the other?

Curious, you install OCLP and then choose the updates for the specific machine? Is there some benefits over the patcher? I am still running with only DosDude patcher on my MBP early 2011 BTW…

Latest OCLP or an older one?

***I got some updates with DosDude patcher but maybe I could get some more with OCLP?

Thanks!

***EDIT: specified in 0.4.4:

• Remove Mojave and Catalina Root Patching
  • Never officially supported outside of developers, if required use 0.4.3

So, I’ve downloaded 0.4.3 but not in a hurry to test it…

I had downloaded updates on DosDue and they failed to install. When I used OCLP, updates were installed from the Setting panel.

Hello everyone, can’t believe it’s been 4 years since I last read this thread - crazy how time flies!

I’ve been looking to install Mojave on another early 2008 MacBook Pro, but I cannot find a full installer for 10.14.3, specifically 18D42 which is the last decent version without the RAM caching issues. I’ve tried torrentmac and Japanese forum sites which either have no seeders or are bundled with Clover and conflicting Hackintosh patches. I’ve also tried installing dot1 and upgrading with patched combo updates, but it each time I try patched get broken and even after re-patching, new bugs appear and the system runs less smoothly than it should.

Does anyone have a copy of the dot3 18D42 installer that they could share? @avz iirc you have a copy still? Or @alphascorp ? Cheers

There is this on archive.org.

Good point pal - though it looks to be the later build of dot3 (18D109) when the RAM issue was introduced

Unfortunately I no longer have a copy of 18D42 but remember very well looking for it on the net. I think it was on allmac.

Cheers mate - though the link on allmac goes to download 10.14.6. I contacted them and they gave me another link but it was a dot1 clover installer 🤦‍♂️😂

I found a dmg for 10.14.1, installed it and then installed combo updates to bring it to dot3 (by removing the "supported devices" lists in the installer distribution files), but now the install is left running slower with broken apps, even though I re-patched the system and followed the correct procedure as others have done.

Are there any notable differences running 10.14.1 vs 10.14.3 in terms of features and performance? I may just clean install 10.14.1 and run that as is, if there's no real benefit of upgrading/trying to find installers for dot2 or 3.
