I remade the installer through Ventura from the App Store and the black screen still persists?

Motto : DO IT AGAIN !
==============

Ok, so you have fresh download of (full) Ventura macOS installer.
Get a 16 GB USB 2.0 stick, then follow the steps here :


Get OpenCore 0.9.9 ( latest stable version)

Go to Dortania site ( Comet Lake section ).

Carefully create the EFI folder using a minimal set of kexts/drivers/tools etc.
Do not use configurators, do it manually.
Make a note of where/why you change a value.
Use @UtterDisbelief settins regarding iGPU.
ocvalidate your final config.plist.

On your target PC :

Remove all un-necessary parts ( storages, Wifi, Bluetooth, USBs, dongles, audio, video, etc )
Check once again the BIOS settings ( IGPU, 64MB, DVMT ... )
As your motherboard does not have DisplayPort, check/use the existing video ports.

Do not skip steps, do it slowly and make notes.

Watch the boot process.

Try to make the biggest step : "something from nothing".

Cheers

I borrowed an RX 6800 XT and it's also giving a black screen at the same stage in the process.

I'll redo the whole process as you suggested.

For dedicated GPU ( RX 6800 XT ) read here :

Also, when using a dGPU, set the iGPU accordingly :



Try to use a DisplayPort on dGPU to your monitor.

I noticed that CSM Support is enabling itself on the motherboard. I disable it, but when I return to the BIOS, it's enabled again. Have you seen this before?

Check the manual .

Enter BIOS, enable CSM, Save&Exit

Enter BIOS, and set UEFI for the options that are displayed ( LAN PXE, Storage Boot, Other PCI, etc ), Save&Exit.

Enter BIOS, disable CSM, disable Secure Boot, Save&Exit

Enter BIOS and check the current settings. If OK, Exit.

I managed to install. Now I'm having trouble recognizing the ethernet.

First, you must identify the revision of your motherboard. Find the info (for your motherboard) in the place pointed by the red circle in this diagram :

Then visiting the manufacturer's site find the specification for the identified motherboard.
For example, the above motherboard has revision REV 1.8
From specification page one can find the info regarding the LAN (ethernet)
In this example, the board has a Realtek LAN chip.

In post #6 (page 1) of this thread i already attached two drivers : 1GBit RTL, 1 Gbit Intel.
Insert the appropriate driver ( a .kext file) in the folder /EFI/OC/Kexts.

Activate the driver in config.plist :


Save the config.plist, reboot, reset Nvram.
Test what/if the driver(s) is/are loaded in RAM by opening a terminal window and running this command (example)



Check the ethernet cables, restart the router, find your IP address ( may be offered by the router ) using ifconfig command (in terminal window)



Test local conectivity using ping command, then test the internet :


adminos@Riptide ~ % ping localhost -c 2
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.030 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.051 ms

--- localhost ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.030/0.040/0.051/0.011 ms


adminos@Riptide ~ % ping 192.168.122.131 -c 2 ( put your own address here, this is a fake IP )

adminos@Riptide ~ % ping 8.8.8.8 -c 2

adminos@Riptide ~ % ping yahoo.com -c 2

adminos@Riptide ~ % traceroute www.google.com

For now, try to locate your problems regarding networking.

Cheers

My motherboard is rev 1.4. It also uses Realtek. However, just by adding RealtekRTL8111 to the kext list, macOS stops booting. I researched and found the plist of other people who used the same motherboard for hackintosh, and they all used this kext. I don't know what to do.
