How to Fix Display switches of before login

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 have a weird issue. After the mac hard disk is selected for boot from picker. The apple logo with the progress bar appears, it tends to load say about 30-40% and then the display switches off. It switches back on at the login screen. The weird part is this was not happening on Catalina. Its occurring on BigSur though. I have an RX580. Any ideas what could be causing the display to switch off? haven't changed anything apart from adding dk.e1000=0 in boot-args for the Intel I225-V no other changes.

Cheers.
