Hello @sizar .
If you are wanting to install Tahoe its necessary to remap your USB ports, USBToolbox and UTBMap.kext are not compatible in 26. USB functionality has changed and older kexts aren't formatted correctly and so will not work. You can try using either CorpNewt's excellent USBMap Master or Hackintool as both have been updated to accommodate the changes. You'd have to do the in Sequoia though.

Make sure you have OpenCore and your Kexts Updated to the latest versions.

Also disabling Whatevergreen.kext is often needed until install completes, but you also should par down your EFI to just the basic kexts. Bluetooth and Ethernet should be disabled again until install completes. Good Luck!

Hi, thanks for the clarification, that was with the tahoe raw file, now im trying to install sequoia with the recovery method and still dont have any luck with it, this time its a clean efi and config only the necessary files and kexts, it just stuck on the motherboard background/logo after selecting the UEFI: Flash Drive from the bios.
edit: i just edited this reply so i could upload the new efi folder thats for the sequoia recovery method
