A strange thing during installation is that if the RTL8111.kext is enabled, the installer won't boot. However, if disabled, there's no issue. Perhaps something is preventing the RTL8111.kext from working well with the Gigabyte B550M motherboard. This issue doesn't occur with other variants, for instance, AsRock and other brands.
