Hii hackintoshers!
Soo im kinda new to hackintosh and this is like my second time trying to install MacOS on my pc but anyway im here because im having an issue during the installation...

Im trying to install MacOS Monterey and im using the online recovery,the only problem is that the installation goes pretty well except at the end when it has to reboot where it freezes at 18 mins remaining at exiting operations...I tried changing some settings in my efi config plist but still none of them worked(i also tried to use the nvme fix) but anyways here are my pc specs:

HP Pavillion Laptop 15
AMD Ryzen 5 4500U with Radeon Graphics
Radeon Graphics(Integrated)
8 GB of RAM
A 512GB KIOXIA SSD

And here is my efi:EFI

You should not use EnableWriteUnprotector and RebuildAppleMemory together!

If you have multiple USB XHC Controllers, add GenericUSBXHCI from downloads.

No reason to use -lilubetall as Lilu patching is supported till Sonoma.

If you use a Recovery image, internet is required for downloading the complete installer from the Apple servers.
 
Yeah i knoww the thing is that ethernet was working fine yesterday(because i tried yesterday too) but when this morning i did the changes its not working anymore so i cant download the complete installer.

Does your Laptop have an Ethernet port?
 
It doesnt but im using an adapter but i know its compatible because i used it yesterday too and it worked fine

Update:I removed the GenericUSBXHCI kext and it worked fine but still the freezing issue is not gone :C

Are your kexts and OC upto date? Also are you using the latest Recovery.dmg?

In addition, it could be your disk! Several users have reported the same issue and their disk was not that compatible. Do you have the proper model/picture of the disk installed?

Never tested this OEM model. KXG80 is what we have tested and works fine. Provide the EFI you're using to boot. Will double check!
