NEED EFI folder for ThinkPad S3 (Ventura beta7 iso)

mamuniii posted a topic in Hackintosh EFI Folder Collection

I'm ok with clover a bit, but this OC seems a lot of hacks...maybe I'm working on out of the blue that's why any help is highly appreciated. Already running Catalina full working except sleep/partial working. FN key seems to get panic attack if using from sleep. Solid built machine with perfect mac. Thanks to Mald0n for patch, its working with a Lenovo S435 EFI (clover) Want to install Ventura olarila. Vanilla if possible
