Decided to go to OpenCore and managed to screw things up.

Yesterday my wife had a sweet Hackintosh running Mojave and I decided to switch from the tonymacx Clover solution to an OpenCore Monterey. Specs below:

  • Motherboard: Asus Rog Strix Z370-i
  • CPU: i7 8700K (Coffee Lake)
  • RAM: Corsair CMK32GX4M2A2666C16 Vengeance LPX 32GB
  • Storage: SAMSUNG (MZ-V7E1T0BW) 970 EVO SSD 1TB (two)
  • GPU: Sapphire 11265-01-20G Radeon NITRO+ Rx 580
  • Wifi/BT: Broadcom Bcm94360cs2 Bcm94360cs2ax

I had some initial struggles but finally got the USB to go to the picker and actually launched the Monterey installer. I installed the macOS to the secondary drive as it was already empty and the install started normally. I saw the machine reboot, but could not see fast enough if it rebooted normally or if it panicked. Either way when it rebooted nothing worked, including booting again to the USB...

I rebuilt the USB again and now I am definitely stuck panicking after selecting the installer. I've got to be missing something stupid, but am definitely ready to scorched earth this, reformat the drives, and try again. Any help would be welcome.

Attached are some images I get after selecting the installer. Link is a zip file of my config.plist and the txt from the opencore boot.
