Hackintosh Monterey Installation Guide

Thanks @czombos for BIOS setup images and some ideas I used here!

Perfect Vanilla Hackintosh with OpenCore bootloader like real Mac.

OpenCore supports boot hotkeys, hold Option or ESC at startup to choose a boot device, Command+R to enter Recovery or Command+Option+P+R to reset NVRAM.

I used this guides as starting point:
