Very excited about the AMD IGPU detection, I feel a new build coming!. Looking at Vega 8 APU specifically the Ryzen 3 2200g.

1st main change confirmed. Update to 0.9.0 eliminated the Windows 11 twirly superimposed over the OpenCanopy picker background (or more accurately, the boot picker graphic correctly wipes before the Windows load twirly appears).

Wait, APUs support is yet in a very early stage.
OpenCore is trying to get graphics pre-OpenCore support in hardware with GPUs unsupported, thanks to the recently added feature EnableGOP, but there is nothing on this side about APUs on macOS.
WhateverRed has made some improvements but only on Big Sur for now. I’m afraid that APUs support on macOS is very very difficult to happen.

Booo.... such a humbug!. But seriously, sure it only works in Big Sur with Vega 8 APU's but it's really exciting, I want to see it!.

Afaik, Lilu does nothing for early boot graphics. Lilu ends up doing some of the patches for Whatevergreen, such as renaming the iGPU in the IOService tree. That all got reverted anyway for AMD iGPUs, and I think is being done in WhateverRed.

Hello. I can't solve this notification that appears at the beginning of OC. What will be the problem?

HDA is High Definition Audio. Did you change any audio settings or add/remove an audio device from your laptop?

I also found this on an Asian website (thus the odd translation errors in Google).

I can't read the warning text.
Upload here your config.plist file (OpenCore 0.9.0).
