Catalina (Clover) to Monterey Update

[Feartech]

@Feartech what should I try next?

check all bios settings:
Disable:
Fast Boot
Secure Boot
Serial/COM Port
Parallel Port
VT-d (can be enabled if you set DisableIoMapper to YES)
CSM
Thunderbolt(For initial install, as Thunderbolt can cause issues if not setup correctly)
Intel SGX
Intel Platform Trust
CFG Lock (MSR 0xE2 write protection)(This must be off, if you can't find the option then enable AppleXcpmCfgLock under Kernel -> Quirks. Your hack will not boot with CFG-Lock enabled)

Enable:
VT-x
Above 4G decoding
Hyper-Threading
Execute Disable Bit
EHCI/XHCI Hand-off
OS type: Windows 8.1/10 UEFI Mode
DVMT Pre-Allocated(iGPU Memory): 64MB or 128MB
SATA Mode: AHCI

are you using your intel graphics in a headless mode? ie enabled in bios with no screen attached? just your AMD card?

try removing:

<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</key>
            <dict>
                <key>AAPL,ig-platform-id</key>
                <data>AwASWQ==</data>
                <key>framebuffer-patch-enable</key>
                <data>AQAAAA==</data>
                <key>framebuffer-stolenmem</key>
                <data>AAAwAQ==</data>
            </dict>

I'm only using the AMD card - no screen attached to the intel graphics. not sure if its enabled in the bios tho, what's the option name?

I'll try checking again the bios settings - I think the settings are correct tho. And try to remove the PCI Root from the plist

yes, that section is not required when you are just using your AMD card

Ok - tried all you said (not all settings are in my Bios - CSM, SGX, Platform Trust, CFG Lock (but I added the quirk), 4G, Disable bit, DVMT are not present). Same exact issue... verbose mode for a little then black screen

think you need to look again as most of them are standard platform trust maybe called Trusted Computing

your manual shows dvmt etc

re-checked. All settings are correct. DVMT is not showing up - only have the option to disable/enable/auto "Internal Graphics"..

probably fine then, probably won't show up if intel is disabled anyway

upload new config.plist

Attaching.. I still have the same issue so not sure what I should try next

should be enabled:
DisableIoMapper (unless you have disabled VT-D in bios)

may also be worth setting: SecureBootModel to Disabled

may also be worth enabling Intel Graphics

and set AAPL,ig-platform-id to 03001259

don't forget to reset nvram when you make any changes to your EFI/config.plist

VT-D is disabled in bios

SecureBootModel I just set to disabled

Intel graphics, im enabling in bios

Adding back the ig-platform-id (previously removed)

I never reset the nvram, so I'll try this now.
