#### *Current Clover Version of the Project: 4558*

#### I sold this laptop so this project has ended.

## Update

## Introduction
#### This EFI configursation is capable for installing too. Replace the EFI folder in the Installation USB.
#### If you want to download the EFI files to try your luck, you can check out the [Configuration Release](https://github.com/Errrneist/Hackintosh-Aero-15W/releases).
#### Or, if you are interested in the theme I used, check it out over here: [Minimalism](https://github.com/Errrneist/Hackintosh-Theme-Minimalism).
#### Or, if you want to see how it looks like in System Information, you can check it out here: [SystemInfo](https://github.com/Errrneist/Hackintosh-Aero-15W/blob/master/SystemInfo.txt).

### Warning
* DO NOT USE FILEVAULT DURING INSTALLATION!!! 100% DISK BREAK AFTER REBOOT GUARANTEED.

### Announcements 
* Links below in the *Quick Link* section will navigate you to different macOS versions.
* If you cannot mount EFI via [Clover Configurator](https://mackie100projects.altervista.org/download-clover-configurator/), then here is a *[Guide for mounting EFI using TERMINAL](https://github.com/Errrneist/Hackintosh-Aero-15W/blob/master/Mount%20EFI%20on%20macOS.MD).*
* AppleALC is becoming problemsome and periodically not working, so I replaced with the newest VoodooHDA 2.9.1.
* Therefore, the speaker is not working but at least the headphone jack works.
* Please tell me if you solved this problem!
