not booting. I don't know what else to do !

[IvanDragoPC]

Hi yall !
I rarely ask for help when something is wrong in my life but this time I am literally forced to do so
I am trying to boot a Mountain Lion Os on a little computer I built to use Logic pro for audio editing
-Lenovo b550 motherboard
-ryzen 7 3700x
-32gb ram
-RX 570 Sapphire
-Lexar NM610 Pro 1TB
I've loaded everything on a USB drive and getting the same error.
34:482 00:011 ASSERT [OpenCore] ImageLoader.c(986): ((BOOLEAN)(0==1))
It's driving me crazy... It's my first time doing an hackintosh and I'don t know how to fix this anymore... It's been 2 weeks since I started this journey and haven't been lucky on multiple occasions ahahaha
Thanks in advance guys !

Hi there.

Let us know how you created your installer USB stick.

Did you use UniBeast? Did you download OS X from the Apple resource?

Ryzen CPU support has been a more recent event. No one I've seen has tried installing such an old version of OS X / macOS, so that may be where the problem lies.

I don't think Mountain Lion will work, initial support for your CPU is High Sierra:

Hi !
I used rufus to make the installer, not bootable and then copied the files in Acpi, kexts that I needed ( i followed an online guide ) and downloaded the os with powershell and macrecovery using python 3.7. I will have to scrap everything and I will try to install a more recent Os thank yall guys. I ll keep you updated for the sake of knowledge

Quick update. I followed the guide and tried to install 10.13 but whenever I make the installer go it stops after a few pages. Then if I do a cleanvram and launch the instal it takes me to the apple logo but the loader doesn't move which makes me more frustrated I want to scrap it and do it all over again, I tried the .aml generated with SSDT ( 2 and 5 option for a b550 ) and with generic pre built. I will attach a file for yall if you can see what is wrong because I cannot all help apprecieted deeply
