I'm stuck in an infinite loop trying to install monterrey in Inspiron 15R 5537

Please, excuse me if I didn't select the right category for this topic... and excuse my english as well.

I'm spending a lot of time trying to install Monterrey in my old Inspiron 15R 5537 following only guides that use this particular model. I'm newbie on this and I'm walking in a complete darkness.... being complete honest: A newbie can look like a senior compared to me!

I create a bootable usb with monterrey that I tested on a vmware virtual machine, so it works fine. 
After that, I installed clover, added the Kexts and config.plist. I attached on this thread.

I attached a photo of the screen while gets into the mentioned loop... I can't find any info about what's happening.

Everything seems to be ok until load process gets into a loop. I can't see an error message per se... only the loop. It just talks about the battery parameters!

Thanks in advance

-Use USB2 port for easy installation with no remap USB
-Users with IGPU can use -igfxvesa bootarg for easy installation
-Delete old EFI folder and paste new. Don't use merge files
-Don't use Drag and Drop into EFI partition. Use Copy/Paste instead
-Reset NVRAM one time - with OpenCore use entry "Reset Nvram" / with Clover use F11 key on boot screen

Yeah.... I did it!

I'm strugling with Kexts for the integrated keyboard (an usb keyboard is doing the job), audio and LAN but it will be a figth for another day.

I used "--CHIPSET SERIES 10, 20", it was the only one that works for me, but it configured my hackintosh as a iMac instead of a Macbook... I tried one by one :(

However, its working!


Thank you.
