I know this is more of a workaround, but have you considered using Apple's FireWire-to-TB3 adapter?

I have one of those. Unfortunately, Apple drop support for FW when Big Sur came out.

I can boot Big Sur and the Mojave rescue partition fine with this EFI. So I guess the problem lies somewhere in this particular Mojave install.
The question is, what? It stops very early in the boot process.

So I booted into the recovery partition and chose reinstall MacOS Mojave. This worked. I can boot into Mojave now.

** Public Beta of macOS Ventura Now Available **​

If you have upgraded to OpenCore 0.8.2 it should be possible to perform an in-place upgrade to the public beta. As always, we strongly recommend making a full bootable backup first.

Update: OpenCore 0.8.3 pre-release may be necessary.

Hm? I just checked my TB3 -> TB2 -> FireWire contraption connected to my ancient RME FireFace 800, and sure enough, this still works.

Had to fight with the .kext installation but that is a known issue in BS.

Good to know. So FireWire is still supported in Big Sur it seems.

Yes, WD SN850 is compatible, but it supports both PCIe 4 and PCIe 3, so it’s more expensive than WD750 that only supports PCIe 3. For this motherboard the SN750 may be a better choice.

For this motherboard the SN750 may be a better choice.

The WD SN770 will work too and sells for a very low price right now. $55 for 500 GB !
