Hello, I have been trying to setup Big Sur for months. Thank you for putting this together, I think I will finally be able to do it!

However I believe this is for if you already have it installed. My drive fried and I am trying to install again. How do I use this to make a new installation? I already downloaded big sur and all, but when I try to boot, there is no option to do it.

Thank you, but although I got that working, apple logo screen with loading bar stops at about 15-20% and reboots the computer? Any tips? Thank you!

For some reason, with your version the log is not being created. But with the base one that I created (which is having the very same issue), I get the following (but I am too much of a nub to understand, since I've never done opencore before):

Thank you. I guess I will have to find a mac to format my usb drive.
I will try the scan policy as well. Thank you!

Non formate your USB with l application TransMac free 15 days (windows 10) https://www.acutesystems.com/scrtm.htm

TransMac only formats to HSF, and that will not show up as a bootable option when starting the PC. Thanks anyway. I will have to find a mac to do it. Hopefully that will make it work!!!

That did it! Thank you! But, when the loading bar is at about 15% approximately, the pc restarts... :( Hopefully when I do find a way to to the APFS format, that will solve it... but things have been gone so wrong, I doubt that will work... so frustrating... Oh well... lets keep trying!

I appreciate it, but it stops in the first second stating the driver HsfPlus.efi is missing or something...
I changed OpenHfsPlus.efi to HfsPlus.efi, then it stops at the apple logo and wont proceed forward.

Yeah... I guess I will have to find me a mac and do the old and good UniBeast... This unfortunately isnt working. :(

Hey! Thank you! I did try, but I only get Reset NVRAM as an option... even changing scan policy. My trials of the TransMac and all others trial period are gone. I will try the Transmac at my pc at work. Thanks again, I will get back to you.
