It was a pain, a real pain to install this following Open Core guide it's just too many steps and information. You will need at least half a day to do it!
You also need a Window or Mac for some of the steps, Linux unfortunately is not enough
I think the craziest step to follow it the USB map (https://dortania.github.io/USB-Map-Guide/). This one I did not do it, it was too much for my knowledge...
Anyway, I finally got it running so here are the key points you should take into account if you have the same hardware:
BIOS configuration [MSI B350M Bazooka (MS-7A38)]:
ACPI
Boot parameters:
SMBIOS: iMac14,2
I hope this information helps someone.
