I just followed the official dortania guide for OpenCore to create a bootable USB. But when I try to boot with it, I'm getting this Kernel Panic. Can anyone identify the error please?

I had also attached my EFI folder.

Thanks

i know this bit should be "data" and not "string"
Code:
<key>prev-lang:kbd</key>
                <string>en-US:0</string>
not sure if that will help though

i see that this has changed in later versions!

you only really need:

    <dict>
        <key>Automatic</key>
        <true/>
        <key>Generic</key>
        <dict>
            <key>AdviseWindows</key>
            <false/>
            <key>MLB</key>
            <string></string>
            <key>ROM</key>
            <data>
            </data>
            <key>SpoofVendor</key>
            <true/>
            <key>SystemProductName</key>
            <string>MacBookPro13,1</string>
            <key>SystemSerialNumber</key>
            <string></string>
            <key>SystemUUID</key>
            <string></string>
        </dict>
        <key>UpdateDataHub</key>
        <true/>
        <key>UpdateNVRAM</key>
        <true/>
        <key>UpdateSMBIOS</key>
        <true/>
        <key>UpdateSMBIOSMode</key>
        <string>Create</string>
    </dict>

@Feartech I tried doing the steps you recommended but I'm still getting the same Kernel Panic. I tried finding the source of problem in General Troubleshooting guide and by disabling DevirtualiseMmio I was able to move quite a bit in the booting process. The installation still failed with a KP unfortunately but the error has changed. Then I added frame-buffer patch and Hurrayy. Finally I can boot into Catalina using Opencore.

Thanks!
