Pre Update Notes:
- This update may break some of your Catalina functions, like audio. Make sure you backup first. See @CaseySJ's CCC script that not only backs up your Catalina installation but also your EFI folder.

- Make sure you use the latest versions of the Lilu.kext, AppleALC.kext and WhateverGreen.kext. They will be in the Downloads > Kexts area.

Here's the step by step way to update:
Backup your current installation using Carbon Copy Cloner (see the link above to CaseySJ's script) or SuperDuper;

(Optional - See Note) Update to the latest Clover

Update Lilu, WhatEverGreen and AppleALC using KextBeast. (Remove any kexts on your Desktop; place the three kexts on the Desktop; and run KextBeast choosing the /Library/Extensions/ folder. If you have these kexts in .../Clover/kexts/other/ folder, don't use KextBeast, but just drag and drop into the .../other/ folder.

If you are updating from 10.15.0, then you don't need to apply any new Port Limit Removal Patches. If you are updating from macOS before Catalina, apply any 10.15.0 Port Limit Removal Patches. Better yet, if you have created a SSDT-USB, then you're all set.

Download the Catalina 10.15.1 Update in Post #1 or the update from Apple's Mac App Store and run it - the updater will reboot upon completion.
Note: Update will reboot twice; each time Clover picks the correct boot partition. So, sit back and relax.

ch: Done! So far, another easy update!

The download speed is now very slow... I may let it update itself and sleep at the same time.

Can anyone confirm that this update includes the 5700 XT support that was "seen" in the betas?

macOS 10.15.1 also brings support for use of AMD Navi RDNA graphics cards in eGPU enclosures.

It is still uncertain if it includes upcoming RX 5500 and RX 5500 XT GPUs.

Hmmm... I updated and lost graphics on my dual Vega 64. I am using the latest Lilu/Whatevergreen. Still trying to figure it out...

Same here...
Black screen on install and nothing after reboot

Clover r5098
WEG, lilu are up to date..

I hear the sound when I change the volume with the keyboard, macOS booted correctly but black screen.

I have set my iGPU in headless mode. So I can’t have picture with integrated graphics.

Try with WEG 1.3.4. There's some AMD and Catalina 10.15.1 fixes. https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/blob/master/Changelog.md

I had this same issue with the beta. There’s a boot arguement you need to add to Clover. Unfortunately, I’m not at home and don’t remember it, but hopefully it’ll help limit your searching for a solution.
