Hi guys,
I've followed the entire OpenCore Install guide (Link).
I succesfully managed to boot from the USB, i even went as far as coming to the
utilities "app" from Apple itself.
So i clicked on install MacOS Big Sur and it was installing just fine.
It would take pretty long to install so i went for a shower.
When i came back, the laptop just kept rebooting and i can't manage to get to this
Apple utilities "app" anymore, even after formatting the USB and replacing MacOS Big Sur and the EFI folder.

Can anyone help me to figure out what went wrong, or even better, help me to fix this?

I added the log file that was created in the EFI folder while rebooting.
The laptop i'm using is a Asus Ux-430-Ua with the following specs:
CPU: I3 7100U, kaby lake.
GPU: Intel HD graphics 620

Attach your EFI to check. Make sure to remove the themes.
 
I've done everything according to Dortania.
This is my EFI folder.

The configuration is not as per the guide.

Read here:

 
I think this is related to number of USB ports. if not mapped i've read that it boots/loops.

When not having ports mapped, it will not boot loop but will stop booting. A reboot loop indicates an issue with NVRAM.
