Sorry for deviating from the template.
background/what i tried first/before
I was trying to use these config files to install macOS Sonoma. First, the macOS partition wasn't showing up, but https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/troubleshooting/extended/opencore-issues.html#can-t-see-macos-partitions fixed it.
Once it showed up, I was getting a black screen and then it kicked me out back to OpenCore. After adding some logging I was getting
OCB: StartImage failed - Aborted
OCB: Restored mode 0/0/0(0) - Success
This error seems very generic and the logging level suggested by Configuration.pdf did not help: Misc → Debug → Target = 3. I set bit 6 on to enable logging to file, so I set Target to 67. Finally some logs:
91:243 00:059 AAPL: ***********************************************************

91:738 00:142 AAPL: Displaying boot failure graphic for 10 seconds...
I did not see any boot failure graphic, just a black screen, but at least now I knew what the reason was.
I added the -no_compat_check boot argument as suggested in https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/17sqjct/comment/k8rkj5r/ and it now boots to the installer/recovery but immediately shows the error message: macOS Sonoma is not compatible with this Mac.
