Something to note before starting: Using a VM does not in any way solve issues with having an unsupported GPU.

- If you have a device ID patch for your I225-V, make sure you have the dk.e1000=0 boot arg. This forces macOS to use the I225LM kext-based driver, and disables the DriverKit E1000 driver, which causes crashes on some systems.
