Great guide! However, I have a problem with installing OSX. I have followed all steps and are just about to install Mac OS. At the boot menu Install macOS Catalina shows up and I click enter. The white apple logo shows up on a black background and freezes in that state. No loading bar, nothing. I've waited up to 15 minutes before restarting the system and trying again, but no difference.
I also tried to prepare a new MacOs Installation USB stick with all the files necessary for the installation, following the guide you wrote, but the same issue remains.
Any idea what might be the issue?
My specs:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z490 Vision D
CPU: Intel Core i9-10900K
GPU: AMD Radeon VII
RAM: 2 x 32 GB, 3200 GHz, G.SKILL Tridentz RGB
SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus NvME 1 TB
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2 TB
Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Card: GX.Linkstar (BCM94360CD)
CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X63
Monitor: LG Ultrafine 5K
I've also ordered a Gigabyte Titan Ridge (2.0) add in card as I've read that it's needed. However, I wrote a message to Gigabyte how say that the Titan Ridce add in card is not supported by Z490 Vision D and that it is not needed to output 5K resolution to the monitor thru the on board Thunderbolt 3 ports, as long as a pull a DP cable from the GPU to the DP In port on the Vision D. Not yet sure wether it will work though as I am currently setting up the system using HDMI into my TV and since the LG Ultrafine 5K did not respond when I tried it earlier. That was before I made the Thunderbolt 3 Setting changes in the BIOS according the guide on the first page of this thread however.
