Laptop doesn't see opencore
You need to manually copy the EFI folder from your pendrive to your system's EFI partition. Use MountEFI made by u/CorpNewt to mount your system's EFI partition.

Getting mac prohibitory symbol when trying to boot without USB
It's a red flag that GUID_partition_scheme is not displayed under Type on diskutil list for my Ventura install (but it's displayed in Disk Utility, I can see GUID Partition Map on Device Information => Scheme for Ventura partition). The EFI partition is also not displayed in my Ventura partition on diskutil list, which is weird, because I'm able to use Mount EFI on it.

Intel i3 8100 & UHD 630 | macOS Monterey
Once I added the "BlueToolFixup.kext" in the EFI folder (using MountEFI: https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI), it was time to update from macOS Catalina to Monterey. The update process was successful, and after disabling SIP (as instructed by chris1111 -author of Wireless-USB-BigSur-Adapter-.), everything worked fine.

Use tools like Mount EFI script or what you prefer.

reboot
You need to mount your EFI partition (find a tool online or use command line). In it you should find "EFI/OC/config.plist". Open the file with Propertree or another plist editor and make the changes.

99% success with my Z390 Designare and Radeon 5700XT
https://github.com/corpnewt/USBMap is a reference for how to map USB. You can also read here https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/pastrychefs-asus-rog-strix-z370-g-gaming-wi-fi-ac-build-w-i9-9900k-amd-6600-xt.239969/ (search: map) for details on the fact that the motherboard's M2 slot uses an internal USB2 port. If it's not mapped, no USB, no BT.

[HELP] Stuck on Boot - USB Error?
Not sure where I'm going wrong - I've updated to the latest version of OpenCore and I'm running just fine on Catalina. There are a few threads similar to this that recommend USB mapping, so I tried that, using the USBMap/Readme. It hasn't seemed to make a difference, unless I screwed up somewhere, but all my ports currently work fine. I have yet to try USBInjectAll.kext, as I do not currently need that to boot and use my USBs in Catalina, but that will probably be my next step.

Problems with USB and Access to old Clover install after Ventura install - Asus TUF Z390-PLUS Gaming
Then I cannot get my USB ports to work properly. I'm trying to map them with USBMap but they only seem to recognise USB3 devices and not USB2. I have a USB3 disk that I have plugged into everything and it shows up in USBMap and IORegestryExplorer, but when I do the same with my USB2 keyboard, it doesn't find it at all.
