[Guide] Booting The USB Installer Using OpenCore

[Feartech]

It stays on that screen forever. Nothing else happens

could be a usb issue, try different ports, also what make usb stick are you using?

Thanks, tried booting using the other two usb ports and same exact thing happens.

The usb stick is Kingston DataTraveler G4 - 16Gb

One different thing I did from your guide is that the formatting of the usb stick and the downloading of the Catalina installer was not using windows like in your guide, but using the official Opencore install guide section "Making the installer in macOS" from my desktop computer. But I downloaded the full Catalina install using another tool called "macOs Catalina patcher"

those are not used in my guide

do you think that would make a difference and might be causing issues? It's the official Catalina install

Maybe @Feartech can help you if you attach your EFI. This doesn't look right. What systems are you both using?

Edit: I looked at both of your hardware profiles and it's not detailed enough. Please specify your exact system (like HP Pavilion 15-cs3153cl) in the "Motherboard" section, your exact CPU (like i7-8550U) in the "CPU" section, and your exact graphics (like UHD 620) + screen resolution in the "Graphics" section. Tell me when you are done.
