How to access a recovery menu?

Hi Team,

I have searched and searched and cant figure this out. I would like to create a "legit" hdd with a fresh OSX install on it. 

But because we use a bootloader when go through the process and reboot the laptop I'm using it will not load into boot selection /recovery.

 

HELP!! WTF do I do?

Yosemite doesn't has recovery partition.

Recovery partitions are available in latest macOS.

oh ok then!

i want to make a genuine osx drive. Can it be done with a hackintosh?

i know the process in running the installer, it loads the target drive with some info, then reboots pc in to the installer and you go form there.

but when we restart with a hackintosh, being a boot loader it doesn't go to the installer.

So what do i do?

Downloads here are also hackintosh Installers, Catalina is Vanilla & So Big Sur is. If you want to try a pure vanilla then use Big Sur Hackintosh Installer
