# Building and installing OpenCore
|
|
|
|
Now that we have a macOS installer, lets now build our OpenCore configuration!
|
|
|
|
First Download the latest release:
|
|
|
|
* [OpenCore Legacy Patcher Releases](https://github.com/dortania/Opencore-Legacy-Patcher/releases)
|
|
|
|
Next, run the `OpenCore-Patcher.app`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From here you have a couple important options:
|
|
|
|
* Build OpenCore
|
|
* Install OpenCore to USB/internal drive
|
|
* Change Model
|
|
* Patcher Settings
|
|
|
|
If you're patching for a different machine than you're running, please select "Change Model" and enter the updated SMBIOS. For more advanced users, you may also tweak the patcher's build settings via "Patcher Settings"
|
|
|
|
Now lets enter "Build OpenCore":
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The process should be quite quick to build, once finished you'll be plopped back to the main menu.
|
|
|
|
Next lets run `Install OpenCore to USB/internal drive`:
|
|
|
|
| Select Drive | Select EFI/FAT32 Partition |
|
|
| :--- | :--- |
|
|
|  |  |
|
|
|
|
* If you have issues, please ensure you install OpenCore onto a FAT32 partition to ensure your Mac is able to boot it. You will need to format your drive as GUID/GPT in Disk Utility
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Once finished, head to [Booting OpenCore and macOS](./BOOT.md) |
