My first time back into Hackintosh world after a long break, and i've got as far as bootable Sonoma USB with OpenCore EFI.
My system config is this:
Gigabyte H470M K
16GB Memory
Intel Core i5-10600 @ 3.3GHz

here is my lspci:

It's been a long while using EFI so assume I'm a total noob - what plist and kexts will I need?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Happy to provide data to get me going

As you have Comet Lake and RX 580, you can try any of these SMBIOS to see how they work, in Sonoma I'm using iMac but the other 2 also work fine:
  • config-14-imac-amd.plist: iMac19,1 + dGPU AMD + iGPU enabled in BIOS
  • config-14-imacpro.plist: iMacPro1,1 + dGPU AMD + iGPU disabled in BIOS
  • config-14-macpro.plist: MacPro7,1 + dGPU AMD + iGPU disabled in BIOS.
Note: iMac19,1 (I have Coffee Lake) must be replaced by iMac20,1 (you have Comet Lake) but really both models must be fine.
 
I've basically just installed everything from the following ZIP (expecting it work straight away)

What I can't seem to fix is moving the EFI folder into the root of the EFI partition - i keep ending up with EFI/EFI/EFI!

so i've edited the config.plist file mentioned above and saved it as config.plist

I cant seem to get mv in terminal to get the EFI folder to go back two levels from /EFI/EFI/EFI to just /EFI - any pointers?

this file i've edited to remove 19 with 20, and saved it as config.plist

yes, mount your EFI partition and use your mouse to drag the EFI folder into the EFI partition

i cant drag and drop in UBUNTU because its a brand new install and im trying to fathom out two operating systems simultaneously!
