I must be doing something wrong...  freezes my machine

I might need a dumbproof explanation on how to install this lol

Hey I found an intel quad NIC....  My Thunderbolt card has no use for me as of now since there is no fix for my Antelope interface.  Is there something that can be done with this?

EDIT: Had this running for a couple of days now...  I have to give you guys props....  I can see how why this here has 148 pages.  This EFI is the most stable I encountered.  My Mac Studio is going back to the store!

People are trying to solve this problem on i210 (your ethernet)

 

I slapped a usb-c to ethernet on it for now and it's working so l will wait for an official fix. 

Thanks a lot for everything...  You guys rock!

Your ethernet card is not supported for now in OSX greater than Big Sur

 

If you are using it this is the problem you have

you can solve for now in different way

Disabling ethernet from bios

Disconnect ethernet cable

put e1000=0 as bootarg to disable OSX driverkit

 

I can't say more without knowing your EFI configuration 

I used either yours or Rox67's...  I changed the serial number and Rom.  I disconnected the ethernet and yes indeed it stopped.   I guess I'm going back to BS for now. 

You guys are freakin geniuses gaddamn.  I JUST bought a Mac Studio...  I just feel like taking that sucker back to the store now lol

Loaded flawlessly on my machine!  Only difference is I have a 6800xt.  But I have a problem when I install Monterey...  The infamous 12 minutes remaining.  When I reboot manually I don't see the install in progress so I cannot continue. 

Got it to work finally.  Had to revert to Bios F4i.  But now I'm getting random reboots once I log in.

Just updated to Ventura without a single issue, tried a fresh install which worked fine including wifi / BT / 2.5G network and just updated my main drive also without any issue.

 

Attached my EFI, @fabiosun feel free to add to OP. (boots Monterey and Ventura flawless only removed audio files from Resources to limit filesize)

(I did a small tweak to the SSDT-TRX40-USB-Port_R88.aml initial version by @Rocket88 and now have all my USB (including front USB-C) working fine and also sleep is working without an issue.)

 

Thanks all for sharing your results and tweaks with this community.
