Hi Everyone,
[CPU][AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 12-Core Processor] |
[Motherboard][MSI B450M MORTAR MAX Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard] |
[Memory][Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory] |
[Memory][Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory] |
[Storage][Samsung 970 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive] |

So getting it installed isn't an easy task.
1. Download a copy of Big Sir via the update on Catalina, it will download to the Applications folder and launch after, Close the installer and do a createmediainstall command from terminal or use GibmacOS and make USB Installer
2. Either you will need to use Virtual Box to install on or a real Mac supporting the update, I used a Mac Pro 5,1 and installed the system to a NVME Drive
You have to install on a VM or real Mac to the desktop all setup otherwise Opencore will not boot the system, As this is beta 1 there is currently no support and the patches for AMD are experimental. Virtual Box Settings for Terminal - Run these after you create the VM
3. Once you have a working copy of the preinstalled system you need to disconnect your Catalina/Mojave drive in your Ryzen and add the drive for Big Sur
Do not mix systems as the new patches could break your main system.
4. Add the EFI Folder to the EFI Partition of a New Formatted HFS+ USB, you will need to add your SSDT's and Ethernet kexts as normal, the basic sects are included in the Zip
Latest Build of Opencore with Config changes and updated supported kexts, You will also need your Own SMBIOS, recommended MacPro1,1
5. Boot into your new System (Navi Users will still need the adgpmod=pikera flag)
Now you have a Working Ryzentosh System.
