  1. iOS
As in the title, opencore opens and I pick the MacOS installer for Sonoma to download on my laptop. Then it goes to the black screen and pack to opencore. I've tried to reflash my boot drive and make a new EFi folder to fix this. This has been a week now and ran out of ideas.
(Also managed to do it the first time but noticed I downloaded it to the wrong drive and restarted from scratch leading me to the problem)
Could it be my BIOS?
Could it be my hardware?
I'm using the TigerLake EFI because of my Intel 11th Gen CPU... is there any problems with this specific CPU gen to make a Hackintosh?
I've also been thinking of resetting my whole laptop to restart...
No UEFI boot mode...have to keep the boot drive in always.
I'm using a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15ITL05 and 8 gigs of ram with Intel HD graphics

Please help...
