How to Fix Hackintosh Catalina not passing code

This mini-guide provides a structural approach to troubleshoot and fix the issue.

Prerequisites

  • Confirm your hardware specifications (CPU, GPU, Motherboard).
  • Ensure you have a bootable recovery USB and backup your EFI.

Fix Steps

  1. Check if your GPU requires WhateverGreen or specific boot-args (e.g., agdpmod=pikera).
  2. Ensure Metal acceleration is fully supported for your macOS version.
  3. Update Lilu and WhateverGreen to the latest versions.

Verification

  • Reboot and verify if the functionality is restored and stable under typical usage.

Original Question:

I tried to install Niresh Catalina on my Windows laptop (i7 - 10510U (4C/8T, up to 4.9 GHz), 16 GB DDR4-2666 MHz RAM, 512 GB SanDisk SSD, Intel UHD 620 + Nvidia GeForce MX230). However, after it reaches the end of the code, instead of showing the install screen to select the disk, the laptop restarts and it goes back to the selector. HELP
