X299 Gaming 7 9980XE install hangs on virtual IOReturn IONVMeController

[jsconiers]

Hi,
Attempting to do an installation of Catalina on X299 gaming 7. Hangs on the following lines:

virtul IOReturn IONMeController
apfs_module_start:1689: load com.apple.filesystems.apfs
virtul IOReturn IONMeController

I was reading there was an ACPI patch that I applied but still have the same issue. Also, booted windows and my Samsung 970 M2 drive is up to date on firmware. I do have a second 1TB M2 drive (Inland) for windows 10. Any help on getting past this issue would be much appreciated!

I have the following configuration:
x299 gaming 7
9980XE
128GB Memory
2TB EVO 970 M2 (Catalina Disk)
1TB Inland / Crucial M2 (Windows 10)
Gigabyte 5700XT
Thunderbolt add in card
10GB Intel Network Adapter

Dropped in TSCadjustrest.kext in kext/others, then added SSDT-EC.aml, and SSDT-AWAC.aml. now I'm still hanging on afps_module_start.
