Mini PC install help

Trying to install Ventura on this Mini PC

Current Build: Ventura
TRIGKEY MINI COMPUTER
Processor: Ryzen 7 5700U（4.3GHz）
Graphics : 8Core 1900GHz Radeon Card
RAM : 32GB DDR4(3200MHz)
SSD: 500G NVME SSD(3000MB/S)
WIFI/BT : WIFI 6 & Bluetooth 5.2
Power: 15W

Created the Ventura USB installer, added the EFI files to the EFI partition. (thanks leesurone)

Steps I have tried:
1. Boot to EFI - Ventura installer
2. Disk utility - Format HD - AFPS
3. Install Ventura
4. Gets to about 17 minutes left,
5. Ok, on each reboot I pick the Install Mac OS selection and it gets a little further, after 5-6 starts, I got to the setup screen,
6. Went through the setup screens, made sure HD was set as startup disk, but now on reboot I get the "Automatic Repair" screen

Attach your EFI here, remove all SMBIOS info before attaching.

OK, everything work now except booting to the new os, have to use USB install disk and the EFI partition. I did mount the EFI partition from the internal hard drive and copied over the EFI files from my USB drive, but I am unable to pick that as a startup disk in the boot menu when pressing F7, so not doing that correctly.

Extra Thanks to leesurone for helping me along the way and getting this far.

EFI partition should have a folder called EFI and then all your files within your EFI folder

Ok, redid the install, formatted the partition correctly this time, so I have the EFI on the SSD. Still unable to boot to the EFI on the SSD, only the EFI on the Ventura USB installer.

screen shot is still wrong

should be:
EFI(the partition) then a folder in there called EFI which has all your other folders in

Ok, I have 2 copies in the EFI Partition, Everything is in the EFI folder as well.

I Went ahead and deleted the extras now. Everything is in the EFI folder in the EFI partition. Still not giving me an option to pick in the BIOS.

Thanks for clarifying

So now it boots Hard Disk UEFI and gives me the choice of the 2 drives, if I pick the last one, it will boot to Mac OS Ventura. Unable to select that in the BIOS though.

Others have had success with their 5700U, but the brand is different.
