Checklist:Yea, I went through that and double checked things. I figured out how to get verbose on in OC and it flashes through a few things then goes to the Apple Logo with the white status bar below it, goes just a bit white and then freezes with no more drive activity. I Tried using different USB ports as will same outcome. Interestingly, when I hit F12, the boot option that shows with the drive I am using is call "OpenCore" by the BIOS. I tried clearing NVRAM as well. Best part for me is I can easily get straight back into Catalina with Clover on my original boot drive. Still pondering...

- Have all Hackintosh kexts been removed from /Library/Extensions?
- If so, was kernel cache rebuilt by issuing these two commands:
sudo touch /Library/Extensions
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
- When you press F12 and see OpenCore as a boot option, that is actually correct. This is because we have enabled an OpenCore feature called Boot Protect.
- Are you running BIOS F9g or later (with CFG-Lock disabled)?
- Do you see a flurry of boot logs scroll by on the screen?
- And then the screen flips to black with an Apple log in the center and progress bar below it?
- How far along does the progress bar go before it freezes?
- How long have you waited during the freeze?
