Solved OCS: Failed to parse data field as blob with type boolean and <BA 08 0000 00> contents, context <Replace>!

Solved by using ProperTree to do the edit instead. Apparently the data needs to be b64 encoded.

I'm booting Ventura in a virtual machine with QEMU and Linux. I have the latest version of opencore and I'm following the guide at https://github.com/AMD-OSX/AMD_Vanilla for patching with opencore. I'm hoping I can boot with -cpu host instead of emulating an Intel CPU. I'm stuck on the part where you replace the values in <Replace>. I get this error:

BdsDxe: loading Boot0001 "UEFI QEMU HARDDISK QM00017 " from PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/Sata(0x2,0xFFFF,0x0)

although I copied the string almost directly from the guide it seems like it can't parse it. I tried removing the spaces as well.

this is what the section looks like in my config.plist

<dict>
<key>Arch</key>
<string>x86_64</string>
<key>Base</key>
<string>_cpuid_set_info</string>

and whole config.plist attached too.
