After many many countless attempts and frustrations on updating my Hackintosh over exactly the past 1 year, I have finally managed to update it.
SPECS:
Motherboard: MSI Z390-A PRO
CPU: Intel Core i9 9900KF
GPU: AMD MSI Radeon 5700 XT MECH OC
EFI: Taken from u/simoncoulton (his thread) and updated for Big Sur. I have also created a GitHub repository sharing the updated EFI. Link to the repository
Update Process:
- Firstly, I booted into my existing Catalina 10.15.3 desktop using Clover (my original boot loader)
- Started installing Big Sur from my old working Catalina 10.15.3 desktop using System Preferences
- Updated the EFI and OpenCore version to 0.6.5 as I had used previously mentioned 0.5.8
- Booted into OpenCore 0.6.5
- Selected "Mac OS Installer"
- The rest was left to the computer to do its thing!
Enjoy peeps :)
