This forum is primarily dedicated to the Asus X570 & B550. You may have better luck finding a Gigabyte B550 specific EFI forum.

The new beta 4 cannot be downloaded. Just my problem?

Any chance of a 0.8.3 Release update? Thanks!

I will be out of the country for a couple more weeks. The EFI will be updated to the stable release when I return home.

Given all the nuances of updating the EFI it is necessary to test the update on the actual hardware to ensure stability.

EDIT: No clue what I did differently, but was able to install it successfully and boots perfectly with Big Sur.

If I want to upgrade to Monterey, can I just install it from the App Store?

No idea if Monterey has changed since I created the pre release of 0.8.3.

I will update 0.8.3 to the release when I return home on the 22nd or 23rd. This in theory should allow 0.8.3 to work with Monterey.

The pre release of 0.8.3 was specifically down for Ventura beta 3. There were some breaking changes in Ventura beta 3 that required the pre release of 0.8.3.

It may not be compatible with Monterey. You may be better off creating a new partition for Monterey and trying stable the version of 0.8.2 before upgrading your primary Big Sur partition to Monterey.

OpenCore 0.8.3 Final Release (August 22nd, 2022) Compiled and Kext updated at 5:50AM (PST)

Confirmed working for Ventura beta 3, 4, 5 & 6.



Screenshot 2022-08-22 at 7.19.19 AM.png


Asus X570 & B550 motherboards with Realtek Ethernet add:

Clean Install - new volume/partition needs to be formatted as APFS. In the past JHFS+ was use, but now the installer fails if the drive was formatted to JHFS+ prior to install.


Required BIOS and EFI Setting:
  1. BIOS Settings
  2. EFI Settings
  3. NVRAM Reset

Thanks for your work. It tells me after the start. Am I doing something wrong?

I received that same error on boot when MISC -> Tools -> FullNvramAccess was in the EFI. Removing it like the sample EFI config resolved this error. Here is a screen shot of the sample EFI from the OpenCore 0.8.3 documentation which does not contain the FullNvramAccess.

I just verified that the EFI I posted does not contain the FullNvramAccess. So, I have no idea.

I probably have it enabled and that's probably the mistake...So far, everything is working fine, there is no problem anywhere(y)

There were a number of items in the EFI that were depreciated and need to be removed. Are you on Monterey or Ventura?
