A prebuilt Opencore EFI for macOS Big Sur on the Dell Latitude E6530

As of November 7, 2023, this EFI is discontinued, due to the EOL of macOS Big Sur. No further updates will be provided.

This is a macOS Big Sur EFI for the Dell Latitude E6530, with support for Intel Wi-Fi cards. 11.7.10 working, with OpenCore 0.9.5 and fully up to date kexts. Remember to keep your kexts and OpenCore up to date! Remember to change your SMBIOS data too.
