I've been trying to install Big Sur to no avail. The installer seems to be getting stuck on "Using default recoveryOS logarchive preservation timeout", and there doesn't seem to be many online solutions. I'll attach my EFI and the opencore log below. Any help is appreciated.

Config seems ok, I'd change npci=0x3000 for 0x2000 if you don't have above 4G in the BIOS. From a quick search it seemed to be an issue in early builds of Big Sur and has since been fixed. Ensure you've downloaded the latest version and remake the Installer but use your same EFI.

Yup, the installer was the problem. Downloaded the latest version from the app store, changed npci=0x2000, and installed Big Sur with no problems. Thanks for the help.
