Hello everyone, I have some issues with the installation of Sonoma.
When I fouling instructions from this tutorial: https://elitemacx86.com/threads/how...ncore-uefi-legacy-opencore-install-guide.950/
I Made a bootable USB with Sonoma, and then I made an EFI folder.
When I choose "Install Sonoma" the installation process starts and after a couple of seconds, the system reboots.
The last error in the bug report is: "Err(0xE) <- EB.RH.LRH"
Can someone give me advice on how to fix the config.plist
This is the bug report, EFI, System Report:

Is your BIOS up to date?
 
No, it's not. I downgraded the BIOS to version "S03KT48A".
I tried to make my computer a hackintosh for 2 and a half weeks, but I gave up.
Every time I tried to install Sonoma, this error appeared!

Well, its your decision to either pursue or give this early. However, as stated in the guide, booting off the installer may take some longer time than expected.

Been busy so couldn't respond to a lot of people out here.

The EFI you posted is not as per the guide. Here are a few issues

Make the following changes to your config.plist

The first mistake is you have config.plist.plist. It should be config.plist only. A reason why the OC doesn't even sees the config.
- Remove FixupAppleEfiImages. Its not required on your hardware.
- Remove the WiFi/BT, HibernationFixup, and sensors (except VSMC) kexts for now. You can either remove them or disable. As always, the goal should be to load minimal set of required kexts so that installer can boot without any hassle.
- You'll likely not need AppleMCEReporterDisabler.kext and CpuTscSync.kext. Although, there is no harm in keeping these two enabled.
- Set the SecureBootModel to Disabled.

Once you're done with the changes, save your config.plist. Restart the system and reset NVRAM twice. Try to boot the installer and check if you can boot now. If not, attach the new PR files.

I made all the changes you recommended, but I am still getting the same error.

Please provide the picture of the error and also attach your BIOS Settings.

You should remove the IOSkywalkFamily.kext. Duplicate kexts will always cause issues.
