Ventura on Ryzen 7 5700U: stuck at different lines every boot.

[sdb]

Hi, I'm stuck with a install and I've run out of ideas, so here's everything I've tried. Maybe someone has seen this exact behaviour.
I use SMBIOS MacBookPro16,2, OpenCore 1.0.7, OpenCore itself boots from a USB stick
and the installation image itself—from the raw partition directly off the NVMe drive.
The kernel starts, verbose output runs for a while, then it just dies. No panic text, no reboot, the cursor stops blinking and the machine is dead. The line it dies on is different every time, examples are shown in the photos attached to the topic.
I have a question for anyone who has encountered the same or a similar problem with my hardware: how did you resolve it, and what is your UMA/VRAM capacity?
Is this problem related to the graphics in some way, or is it deeper than I think?
Oh, right I’ll also provide the config.plist, use repomix to show the structure of my flash drive, and—even though it’s already included in the repomix file—I’ll provide the latest log file (the one where I’m currently stuck) separately as well.

The only thing that is consistent in the 3 x screen images of the verbose text is an ‘AppleNVMe Failure’. This is likely caused by your KIOXIA NVMe drive. It is not uncommon for Laptop NVMe drives to not play well with macOS.

The best option would be to replace it with a macOS compatible drive, Western Digital or SanDisk Gen 3 or Gen 4 drives are the most compatible options.

Post a copy of your whole EFI folder, the config.plist doesn’t tell the full story about your OC setup, I.e. which version of OC you are using.

And I'm not entirely sure the issue is actually with my NVMe.
It's most likely down to my kexts—which might be conflicting—or an incorrect NVMeFix configuration.

I will have a look at your OC EFI later tonight.

I have found KIOXIA drives to be problematic whenever I have come across them in a Mini PC or laptop. Ended up replacing them with a macOS compatible Western Digital drive, repurposed the KIOXIA drive to run Windows where they work without any issues.

I have attached a revised EFI folder for you to try. See if this gets you any further along the installation process.
