I installed Monterey and it's working, touchpad, Brightness, sound, but after saving the EFI folder to my ssd and unplugging the flashdrive, it crashes everything and only works by restarting with the flashdrive plugged in again. My touchpad works without any jumps, but it crashes if I unplug the boot flashdrive.
