Ugg.. So I was planning on upgrading to Big Sur from Catalina (latest version build) and I went to use clover configurator and updated the clover build though the system. This installed 5135 and now when I boot it goes for about 4 seconds and then reboots and this continues over and over.
Trying the recovery partition also does the same.
I managed to take a screenshot but it was so freaking fast..
Bottom line says in memory panic stackshot succeeded ** bytes traced 15296 **
I have attached my config.plist (removed serial etc..)
I have tried to create a bootable catalina usb drive by installing catalina on usb and installed clover builds. I have tried a few but when I boot off of that I also get the same type of result.
Any thoughts? My data is still there just freaking need to figure out how to get this to boot now :/
The same thing happened to me when updating to the r5136 version in Catalina, it simply did not start anymore, I made the mistake of deleting the EFI partition and I could not reinstall it, so I had to put the entire operating system from the beginning, I took the opportunity to accommodate all to upgrade to Big Sur so change the Mac model to 18.3
but so I updated the clover to the r5123 version to be able to update to Big Sur and I made the changes adding the lines of the Quirks in the config.plist file and I made the changes in the folders containing the kext, in ACPI and that of the drivers, according to the following post
Established users of macOS Catalina who wish to update directly to macOS Big Sur can do so just like a regular Mac would. This fully native method requires no USB creation or preparation and allows you to keep all of your files and settings. Before you begin, we strongly recommend performing a...

not sure what will happen, sounds like clover may just be borrowing from opencore, it can be a headache just trying to get 1 bootloader working, let alone 2 together :) OpenCore itself is staying seperate, the Clover team just embedded OpenCore into Clover for Big Sur compatibility. Though...

Thank you for reply. I've tried VirtualSMC and removed all FakeSMC(Plugin kexts as well) but the same problem. I will see what may I have missed. I will let you guys soon.

so far everything works, although it marks some errors when loading the operating system.
However upgrading to Big Sur from Mojave has been impossible.
Do not try to install Big Sur from scratch since Catalina does not allow the installation of 32-bit applications such as the Adobe Acrobat DC Pro that I use 2015, so I always install Mojave and all the applications that I have in 32-bit and then update directly to Catalina In this case I tried it for Big Sur and it was simply impossible to stay in the apple logo and it did not go from there, and I could not even re-enter Mojave so I had to do a new clean installation.
Simply using the new versions of Clover since they added the combination with Open Core is almost impossible at least for me, so I better started studying the Dortania guide
Current supported version 0.9.1

and it seemed complicated to me at first due to the amount of information that must be reviewed to create the EFI folder, however every time its use and convenience became clearer, as well as the explanation of why to use and not use each thing, later two days to go through everything and create the EFI folder. And honestly, the cleanliness of the open core seems surprising to me, I already tried it and it was great without any problem, even the system load is at least twice as fast as with clover, another advantage that I found is direct charging and it maps the USB ports directly without You need to do it by hand or compile the aml file so that you can use the USB 3.0 ports. The Kext files are loaded directly from the EFI folder without the need to install anything to the operating system, synchronization with icloud without problems, as well as the use of imessage and facetime which could not be used with clover. To start open core from the pc disk instead of the usb where I made the EFI folder, it was as simple as mounting the EFI partition on the hard disk where Mac OS is installed and copying the EFI folder that I created.
Having all this done, I was able to update from Mojave to Catalina without any problem, it did not let me do it to Big Sur since it appeared that the update assistant found an error, it is likely that the Big Sur app that I downloaded from is corrupted the app store, over the weekend I will try to upgrade to Big Sur from Catalina using open core.
