Catalina Troubleshooting on Golden Hardware

Hi Guys,

Been trying to get my Hackintosh build to boot for over a week now with no luck, supposedly I'm using golden hardware but still no luck with a Vanilla install or Unibeast on Catalina. Willing to PayPal some monnies for help on this !!

The problem is I constantly run into the dreaded AppleNVME Assert Failed error and can't make it to the installer. Detailed error log is here

What I've tried so far

  • Number 1: RTC BIOS Patch (No luck here and I can't downgrade the BIOS, thanks Asus!)

  • Number 2: Just about every config and EFI folder known to mankind

  • Number 3: Every BIOS configuration I could think of.

Hardware Specs: - Asus Z390-E Motherboard - Intel i7 9700K - 16GB Crucial DDR4 - Samsung 970 PRO 512 GB - UHD Graphics

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I was able to make it to the installer, I had to change EC0 to EC 4543305f 45435f5f. Unfortunately it errors out at 3 minutes remaining. Is there a way to see the error log?
