Sorry I bad English

Maybe you could attach the tools used too in this guides?

 

Thx

I'm afraid this is not a very good "guide" at all... Final pack is also poor and erroneous: FakePCIID_XHCIMux without FakePCIID, USBInjectall + USBPorts + SSDT-UAIC, SATA-unsupported, Clover patches, patched DSDT... Installation pack is shock horror! 

 

We have much better guides for the E6x30 models that provide full functionality for the laptops.
