Installing Monterey using opencore 0.7.6 "A required firmware update could not be installed"

[hadamcova]

Hi,
so i've been struggling with installing monterey on my amd build. I resolved my efi issues and finally got the system to boot to recovery and start installing. After the first reboot into mac installer it gives me this error screen: A required firmware update could not be installed and im stuck moving forward. I've checked my config for possible errors and common fixes like AdviseFeatures=True and my SMBIOS is set to MacPro7,1 with cutom generated serials. Any help would be much appreciated since im hard stuck for now,

Thanks!

If you're being prompted to update your firmware to install with an APFS volume, this likely indicates an outdated SMBIOS table. First, verify the following:

• You have PlatformInfo -> Automatic enabled
• UpdateSMBIOSMode is set to Create
  • Make sure CustomSMBIOSGuid is disabled
  • For Dell and VAIO machines, ensure that CustomSMBIOSGuid is enabled and UpdateSMBIOSMode is set to Custominstead
    • CustomSMBIOSGuid and UpdateSMBIOSMode should always be in tandem with each other
• Using a SMBIOS supported in this version of macOS
  • ie. you're not using -no_compat_check
• You're using the latest version of OpenCore
