I recently upgraded the motherboard and CPU in my Hack. I'm trying to get MacOS to boot, and the boot won't go past #[EB|LOG:EXITBS:START], seemingly no matter what I do. I've been going through the Dortania guide for this issue for the past two days to no avail. My config.plist and last boot log are attached. I would appreciate any insight.

Your config.plist is not as per the guide. Why are you using SSFT-AWAC and SSDT-RTCAWAC together?

You're dropping the OEM DMAR table and have the DisableIoMapper enabled as well.

You also don't need the MmioWhitelist either.

Set ResizeAppleGpuBars to -1 and disable

You may need to disable SetupVirtualMap in order to boot.

You're injecting kexts for BCM WiFi and then also using BT kexts for Intel.

AppleXcpmForceBoost isn't needed for your hardware.

UpdateSMBIOSMode should be set to Create.

You should start from scratch and follow this guide:
