If you run into these issues and manage to resolve them, please consider replying with a solution.

Tips:

• maintain awareness of drivers (.kext) for the make / model for the ethernet adapter and wifi.
• Comet Lake: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config.plist/comet-lake.html#acpi
• generate your own serial numbers
• When you are successful, I would suggest posting your EFI to GitHub.

Have fun and good hunting.

No dice so far, sadly. I've posted a new thread asking for help; once I'm up and running I'll definitely share it back with everyone. Fingers crossed!
