On installation Catalina setup my pc keyboard and mouse not working im new to to installation
Before you install OSX on the target machine, install Windows 10 or Windows 11 first. Make sure that ALL of your drivers for Windows 10 or 11 are installed (especially your chipset drivers). Use the Windows version of USBToolBox, and map your ports per their instructions (basic instructions are on the same page with the utility). Grab that here: https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool. Run the Windows.exe version (your antivirus software will go nuts trying to run this on your machine, either allow it, or rename the executable after unpacking it). Copy the created kext (called UTBMap.kext) file this program creates onto a separate flash drive to use after MacOSX is installed. Next, head here (https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext/releases), and grab the two kexts (USBToolBox.kext and UTBDefault.kext) within the zip file. Unpack, and put them in your EFI/OC/Kexts folder on your bootable USB drive. Use ProperTree to open the config.plist on your bootable drive, do an OC Clean Snapshot (this updates the config.plist with the new kexts you added), and SAVE.

What did I do wrong?
Open the config in ProperTree (https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) and do a clean snapshot (CMD-SHIFT-R). This will put all of the kexts in the right order.

Is there someone who can tell me what I need for my efi file
NO. Prebuilts are a bad way to start. They are not updated and aren't configured to your specific needs. Make your own EFI and also don't use OCAT, use ProperTree which can do OC specific things like OC (clean) snapshots.

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.

If anything, keep .contentFlavour files removed and try updating your config.plist using ProperTree or some other plist editor which just makes it easier to read. Sorry I couldn't be of much help but its the best I've got right now haha.
