Install of Catalina good but ...

[troyboy77]

Hi I did a download of Catalina raw image vanilla image.

 I used Balena Etcher to burn raw image to usb.

I could not after doing the burn of Catalina to usb see any files from usb in windows nor could i see the usb dhow up in windows .

I then did a try of installing Catalina without using any other efi.

There were alot of errors before install on black screen with all that info.

It made it to where I could format my drive to AFPS

I installed and all went well .I have no sound because of a sound blaster z card ,and no internet I am not connected to ethernet yet.

My question is ,should I leave all alone or should I replace the EFI on USB with my coffeelake mod EFI.

Or should I chabge something on my Catalina fresh install?

I have a i3-8100 with uhd 630 video and 32 gigs ram.

Use efi folder for ur hardware from here https://www.olarila.com/topic/25111-hackintosh-efi-folders-with-opencore-mod/

Use -igfxvesa for easy installation

Thanks for the reply internet is working from ethernet and it also asks if I want to update ,so I guess that is a bad idea?

The efi goes on the partition where i installed Catalina ?
