Hi everyone, I'm trying to install macOS Sequoia on my PC with the following specs: Ryzen 5 4500G, MSI A520M-A PRO motherboard, 16GB RAM, and no dedicated GPU (I'm using the integrated graphics from the CPU). I'm using OpenCore configured via OCAT. The system boots and reaches the Apple logo, but the progress bar freezes at around 35% and doesn't move further. I'm using the following kexts: Lilu, VirtualSMC, NootedRed, AppleALC, and AppleMCEReporter. I'm not using WhateverGreen. My boot-args are: agdpmod=pikera -v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100. My SMBIOS is iMac20,1. I've already disabled CSM and enabled Above 4G Decoding in BIOS. I'd appreciate any suggestions, especially from anyone with similar hardware. Thanks in advance!

Disable NootedRed and then try again.
