Also, here's the 087 I'm running. Add your serial.Gotta runaway for an hour, but I'll do as you suggested soon as I return.
What drive are you using? Also, try change SecureBootModel to Default.I tried your EFI. With and without XMP enabled. Rechecked BIOS settings - all set as per this thread minus Thunderbolt. Same result. Any ideas?
can you boot into Recovery without the issues?WD Black SN770 nvme 250gb. SecureBootModel on/off no difference.
To me that proves that your set up is fine but somethings wrong in macOS. I'd try installing a fresh copy on another partition or drive. If nothing is precious on your current OS, I'd try installing over it.Yes. I can get into Recovery. Terminal opens no problem.
