My name is Ivan Cafiero, or more commonly known as dreamwhite. I’m a software developer and in my spare time I do hackintoshes, including co-founding Utopia Team. This blog will contain some researches I’ll make

Why hackintoshes? How you discovered them?

I’m not that good at writing but I’ll try to sum up things

When I was 7, my father gave me a CD with Ubuntu 8.04. Here is the moment when I started learning Linux and getting more confident with it. In 2010 I discovered VirtualBox and VMWare and started testing OSs on my father’s Dell XPS M1330. Here I discovered MacOS X (the good ol’ times w iATKOS and Chameleon). This was my first experience with Apple OS then I abandoned it for a few years when…

In 2019 I knew this geeky guy who had macOS Mojave 10.14.3 on his laptop. I started asking him how he did stuff and he suggested me Hackintosh Italia Telegram group where I firstly got in touch with Clover bootloader. After becaming way more active in that community I became rapidly a mod.

Where did the name dreamwhite come from?

Idk honestly, I have a bad memory atm, but from what I remember vaguely, I was in a smol lamer group (I’m a little bit embarassed in this but hey, every geek started off there, don’t lie to me haha) where there was a guy who was called dreamblack. My stupid mind decided to merge the white hacker thing with that name and there we go.
