Follow the following thread. Everyone there have the Legion 5 and trying to get it working properly. You can use the EFI from post 98, but there are a lot of variation EFI as there is further development. You should start reading from the start

Can you download Geekbench 5 and test the GPU 6700s. On the Legion 5 Monterey I get 61k on OpenCL and Metal. The 6700s is basically the same as the 6600m while the 6800s is closer to the 6700m
Here is my test score of the GPU on Metal. (BTW, this is a very good score)
Not the same. The Omen doesnt have a MUX unlike the Legion 5 and the Asus G14. These 2 models are the current and only 6600 laptops that allow to disable the IGPU at a bios level.
Having said that, maybe that can be solved with Proxmox, but is just a guess
Natively, no, because the GPU doesn't have a Mux switch. Maybe via Proxmox you may be able to access the GPU, but that is a risk.
Maybe you can get it working without graphics acceleration
Edit: I could not find if the 2022 model of the Omen 16.1 which includes the updated RX6650. have a MUX...
He could but there is not much he can do. Even with the IGPU development, he will not gain graphics acceleration. I am following the vega development on telegram, and there is no real progress
If you have Nvidia, you may have thunderbolt, you could attach an external GPU and try use an amd card to boot Mac OS (maybe). If not, you will be stuck with no graphics acceleration.
I tried Proxmox and failed miserably. Technically it should have worked but I kept getting a black display. I gave up on it. I could not get Graphics enabled
That’s how mine is behaving. Sound good, mouse via usb good but drives don’t mount.
I did develop a problem. I’m thrown out of the os to a page asking me to choose the boot drive. It started after I changed the fenvi card for an intel
Exactly why I love hackintoshes. My daily is a the Helios laptop with the Vega 56 and the Ryzen 7 2700. With multiple drive bays and upgrade options, 4 slots I can have 128GB or DDr4. Had 96 in it, but took 32GB and put it on the Legion 5. This level of tinkering is out of the question with...
I guess If we wanted a laptop with a 6600M with higher possibility to be hackintoshed we should have gotten this piece of overprice tech 🤣
EDit: Not, that price is silly and with that money may as well buy an M1 max
Here is an example of the where the White Noise happen.
Specs on the laptop above are:
Omen 17 (2017-18)
CPU: I7 7700hq
GPU: RX 580 8GB
Memory: 16GB Ddr4 @ 2400
HHD: Nvme 256GB (From my Helios 500) Currently Mojave installed.
Wifi & BL: Fenvi m.2
As a Mojave Machine, is almost as perfect...
Thanks. The GPUs have perfectly functional, not likely to be the issue. I will give at your try from your other thread and this when i have some free time. Thanks man!(y)
Funny, My fenvi m.2 wireless didnt work but the BL did work. BTW, I use the Apple magic trackpad anyway and is great. the 165hz of the display is butter smooth when flipping through desktop spaces. Also is very usable even when only one CPU. core,
