Could be your macOS Sequoia installer is borked, it wouldn’t be the first time this has happened to a user. At this later stage in the installation it is unlikely to be an OpenCore issue.

Have you tried running the installation with just your Samsung 870 drive connected, I.e. all other drives temporarily disconnected?
