I'm trying to run a basic assembly file using 64 Bit Mac OS X Lion, using nasm and ld which are installed by default with Xcode. I've written an assembly file, which prints a character, and I got it to build using nasm. Nasm -f elf -o program.o main.asm. However, when I go to link it with ld. Can I run Mac Os from a SD Card? I have an notebook laying around and I will like to try to transform it on an hackintosh, but it uses eMMC and I heard that mac doesn't work on that.

This article is intended for system administrators who set security policy in enterprise environments that require smart card authentication.
Make sure that you carefully follow these steps to ensure that users will be able to log in to the computer.
For more information about smart card payload settings, see the Apple Configuration Profile Reference.
For more information about using smart card services, see the macOS Deployment Guide or open Terminal and enter man SmartCardServices
.
If you manually manage the profiles that are installed on the computer, you can remove the smart card-only profile in two ways. You can use the Profiles pane of System Preferences, or you can use the /usr/bin/profiles command-line tool. For more information, open Terminal and enter man profiles
.
If your client computers are enrolled in Mobile Device Management (MDM), you can restore password-based authentication. To do this, remove the smart card configuration profile that enables the smart card-only restriction from the client computers.
To prevent users from being locked out of their account, remove the enforceSmartCard profile before you unpair a smart card or disable attribute matching. If a user is locked out of their account, remove the configuration profile to fix the issue.
If you apply the smart card-only policy before you enable smart card-only authentication, a user can get locked out of their computer. To fix this issue, remove the smart card-only policy:
rm /Volumes/<volumename>/var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/MDM_ComputerPrefs.plist
rm /Volumes/<volumename>/var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/.profilesAreInstalled
rm /Volumes/<volumename>/var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/Settings/.profilesAreInstalled
rm /Volumes/<volumename>/var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/Store/ConfigProfiles.binary
rm /Volumes/<volumename>/var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/Setup/.profileSetupDone
Users can use their smart card to authenticate over SSH to the local computer or to remote computers that are correctly configured. Follow these steps to configure SSHD on a computer so that it supports smart card authentication.
Update the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file:
sudo cp /etc/ssh/sshd_config /etc/ssh/sshd_config_backup_`date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M'`
Then, use the following commands to restart SSHD:
sudo launchctl stop com.openssh.sshd
sudo launchctl start com.openssh.sshd
If a user wants to authenticate SSH sessions using a smart card, have them follow these steps:
ssh-keygen -D /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib
sudo cp /etc/ssh/ssh_config /etc/ssh/ssh_config_backup_`date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M'`
If the user wants to, they can also use the following command to add the private key to their ssh-agent:
ssh-add -s /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib
Use the following command to back up the /etc/pam.d/sudo file:
sudo cp /etc/pam.d/sudo /etc/pam.d/sudo_backup_`date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M'`
Then, replace all of the contents of the /etc/pam.d/sudo file with the following text:
Use the following command to back up the /etc/pam.d/login file:
sudo cp /etc/pam.d/login /etc/pam.d/login_backup_`date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M'`
Then, replace all of the contents of the/etc/pam.d/login file with the following text:
Use the following command to back up the /etc/pam.d/su file:
sudo cp /etc/pam.d/su /etc/pam.d/su_backup_`date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M'`
Then, replace all of the contents of the/etc/pam.d/su file with the following text:
Here’s a sample smart card-only configuration profile. You can use it to see the kinds of keys and strings that this type of profile includes.

It’s not uncommon for MacBook Pro owners to develop problems writing to (or deleting from) their SD cards over time. Even when the write-protect switch on the card is all the way to the top, which should be read & write, the card appears under Mac OS as read-only. This can be immensely annoying.
The solution is, fortunately, very simple. Rather that pushing the write-protect switch all the way to the top, leave it somewhere in the middle. When you next plug the card into your MacBook Pro, you should find that you’re able to write files to, and delete files from, the card as normal.
It may take a little bit of trial-and-error to get the right position, but in my case it was right around the middle, perhaps a little nearer to the top. Then, I was able to write files, and delete files as normal.
As to why this works, it’s probable that the little lever inside the MacBook Pro’s SD Card slot, which detects the position of the write protect switch, slowly degrades over time, either through continual use or a buildup of dust or fluff inside the card slot. Leaving the switch in the middle, therefore, fools the card reader into believing that it’s at the top.
