Hello everyone. So, I recently bought an e6430 with the following specs:
-i5 3210m
-Intel HD 4000/NVS5200M
-4GB RAM
-1600x900 resolution
I've been going though all the stuff with Catalina Opencore (this would be my 3rd hackintosh and my 2nd with Open Core) and have successfully-ish installed the most recent version of Catalina. I got to the installer, erased the Drive, formatted it (tried APFS and HFS+, same result), and got to the reboot (where I would now boot to the Macintosh HD, rather than the installer on my USB, it gets all the way past the Verbose, I get a QUICK flash of the Apple Logo/loading bar, but before anything loads, the system reboots back to the Dell logo. I can't quite find anyone else with this exact error at this point in the install.
I'm quite an amateur with Opencore, but I'm wondering one of a few things
-Do I need to disable the 5200M and just do everything through the HD 4000? I have another Latitude in this series without the 5200M that was sucessfully Hackintoshed to Catalina without this issue. I honestly wouldn't know how to do that, as beyond some minor ProperTree config.plist updates, I've been relying on bootpacks so far.
-Is it a CPU power issue? I tried what I thought was a DSDT for this exact CPU but it didn't work
-Should I enable or disable Optimus? When Disabled, I get a black screen but no Reboot.
I have attached my EFI folder below. Thank you all very much.
