macOS Big Sur and Monterey on your Dell Latitude 5480!

Dell Latitude 5480 Hackintosh EFI - macOS 11 and 12

Introducing my new hack: Dell Latitude 5480 running macOS!

Can be used for the Dell Latitude 5280/5580 and the Dell Precision 3520 as well (w/ some modifications)

OpenCore bootloader for stability.

NOTE:

• Use one-key-hidpi to get HiDPI support in macOS
• Please disable your CFG Lock and adjust your DVMT.
• The EFI was designed to boot Monterey, to boot Big Sur you will need to make some changes with your kext folder as described in the release's description since 1.2.

Running fine on macOS Big Sur. Monterey should work, but you'll need to update your Wi-Fi kext.

Dual Display with VGA port (somehow it worked)

Dual Display with USB-C hub (HDMI also works and it outputs the same image)
