That's good advice. Thank you!

I do understand that. But why do I have a total of 3 volumes? I have the main Catalina Volume, then I have two separate Catalina-Data volumes. That totals 3 volumes. Why do I have the two Catalina-Data volumes, when most installs have only 1? Can I delete one of them, and which one?

I guess my main question is why do I have 2 Catalina-Data volumes and can I delete one? (which one?)

And why do they have such vastly different amounts of data on them?

Yes I did, but I formatted the disk in APFS prior to the reinstall. Is there one that I can safely delete?

But isn't it normal to just have one data partition, not two?

As you can see in the screenshot below, for some reason I ended up with 2 Catalina-Data partitions. I also have a Mojave install and that only has one data partition. Any idea what I should do with the extra partition? As you can see, the Mojave install only has one data partition. Any ideas...

I installed 4 separate ssd's in my computer and installed High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, and Manjaro Linux. Quadruple booting all successfully. I am using one EFI partition to boot all of them. Thanks for the advice guys!

Hypothetically, if I were to do 3 installs on the same SSD with 3 different partitions: 1 partition for a High Sierra install 1 partition for a Mojave install 1 partition for a Catalina install Can I use the same EFI folder for all 3 installs? If not, what would the ramifications be? Thanks, Len

I had to remove these 2 : /System/Library/Extensions/AMDFramebuffer.kext /System/Library/Extensions/AMD9500Controller.kext Because after installing them, my RX-580 was not recognized properly as it shows in your screenshot. Once I removed them I was fine.

After you replaced the AMD kexts, was your video card recognized correctly in “About this Mac”? Did it reflect the correct amount of video ram?

I had that exact same message. I searched in google for that exact message. There was lots of info. I don’t recall the fix, but I did find the answer there.

It’s an app in Catalina. It’s in your dock. It says Appletv. Just open it and click on one of their streaming shows such as “The Morning Show”. see if You are able to stream the trailer for the show.

Can you try to stream from Apple TV+ just to see if it’s possible? That would be a big help. Thanks!

Can you stream through Apple TV+?
