Maybe try booting into a live system? Like a Live Linux USB drive

Maybe try booting into a live system? Like a Live Linux USB drive

I was able to fix it by building a new thumbdrive with Open Core Following the mini guide, and using that new thumbdrive to boot. Then I saved my old config.plist, and copied the serial numbers and saved the new thumbdrive config.plist to my computer's EFI Folder and replaced the new numbers from the thumbdrive with the old numbers from my old install. Seems to be working without issue now.

Glad to hear it!! The SSDT procedure has been greatly simplified thanks to @Inqnuam's website:

HackinDROM

The site - replies "Bad Gateway"

Mine came with some bent pins and no instructions. I tested with both jumpers in the 3.3V position as well as only one jumper. It seemed to produce the same result. Are the instructions available online?

The website is here LC Technology CH341A and there is a MediaFire link to the English manual.
As with all Chinese manuals it takes a bit of reading!!

It's working fine here.

• I'm running Catalina.
• I have not hackintosh kexts on /Library/Extensions
• Verbose boot shows a kernel panic

The screenshot shows that previous versions of (a) Lilu [1.4.5], (b) WhateverGreen [1.4.0], and (c) AppleALC [1.4.7] are still in the prelinked kernel. The new versions from the OpenCore Kexts folder (1.4.6, 1.4.1, 1.5.1) could not be injected.

This suggests that when Hackintosh kexts were removed from /Library/Extensions, perhaps Kext Utility was not run? Alternatively we can type the following in Terminal and reboot.

sudo touch /Library/Extensions
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions

If you are unable to boot into macOS, try the following:

• Boot into Recovery
• Open Terminal and type these commands:

touch /Volumes/Catalina/Library/Extensions
touch /Volumes/Catalina/System/Library/Extensions

• But replace the word Catalina with the actual name of your Catalina disk.
• Then reboot and see if the system boots.

That's worry some. I did run kext utility to rebuild cache, but if this is happening, it could explain my issues with igpu still not working.

Will touching the dirs' timestamps force the OS to reload/reinject them? Should I run kext utility after that?

Whereas Kext Utility works in Mojave, it may not work properly in Catalina. Thus it's better to use touch commands in Catalina and not use Kext Utility. On the next reboot, Catalina will rebuild the kernel cache properly.

How can I check which kexts are currently injected on my booted Catalina install?
I managed to do kextstat | grep -v com.apple and I do see the older versions. Should I update them on my Clover EFI before switching to OC?

Also, I can't touch anything inside /System, as it's read-only

➜  ~  sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
touch: /System/Library/Extensions: Read-only file system
