[NGFF/M2 SSD] what is blud planning
Try adding SATA-unsupported https://github.com/khronokernel/Legacy-Kexts/blob/master/Injectors/Zip/SATA-unsupported.kext.zip

Help please!!! What can i do with this?
I would guess SATAUnsupported.kext, but you should check here and make sure you've disabled anything unsupported, such as IRRT, hardware, etc. Again, I have no idea what your hardware and OC configs look like. Maybe start fresh, and open a new thread? You mentioned using the same files for your Clover and OC configs, and can personally tell you this rarely works right.
- What is this kext for SATA-Unsupported?

SATA drives not visible in installer.
For Catalina, You should use this kext instead SATA-Unsupported(opens new window)

Thanks for the tip, I tried installing SATA-unsupported.kext and AHCIPortInjector.kext

"touch: /var/run/installer: Read-only file system" on Tiger 10.4.10 (Pentium M 715)
I took a look at your EFI, and I don't see any obvious errors in the config.plist. Concerning the ACPI, I don't think a valid EC is required in macOS prior to Catalina 10.15; thus, SSDT-EC is unnecessary. Concerning the Drivers, I don't think Ps2KeyboardDxe is required. Also, why use VBoxHfs-32 instead of HfsPlus32? I am curious as to where you got most of your kexts; USBInjectAll only works on El Capitan 10.11 and above, and I don't think IOATAFamily nor SATA-unsupported are required for your laptop; does your laptop even support AHCI or SATA?. AHCIPortInjector and VoodooHDA, I'm not sure about (for the latter, I think you should be using VoodooHDA-FAT). The others look fine, though.

Problems installing Mac os Monteray
Take out the AMDRyzenCPUPowerManagement.kext. Add AirportItlwm.kext (if you have Intel Wifi) and IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext. Also, make SURE you grab the correct AirportItlwm kext for your operating system (Big sur, Monterey, etc.). I'm assuming your UTBMap kext is the USB map. You might want to rename that and see if that helps as well (to USBMap or USBPorts).

Bluetooth issue with Monterey
I digged into discussions about Monterey's bluetooth support problems, which said that Apple downgraded BT support to 5.0, while some of Intel's BT adapters support only BT 5.2. But one commit of IntelBluetoothFirmware said that it added support for those cards. I switched to Windows and found the VID/PID of the bluetooth device is precisely 8087/0026, which is in the support list.
What are some alternatives?
