Creating USB

I recommend to create on the USB-flash with USB3.0, because the install will very long.

Read Dortania GUIDE for creating USB bootloader

Createinstallmedia method

This is the same mechanism you would use to create a USB installer for a real Mac Monterey.

It is a single line, executed in Terminal:

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Monterey.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume

USB bootloader is ready.

Post Installation

After installation mount local EFI disk. Terminal:

sudo dislutil list

sudo diskutil mount disk0s1 (see diskutil list)

Copy EFI folder to EFI partition.

OC - boot-args:

keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 agdpmod=pikera -wegnoigpu alcid=66

Reboot system. MacOS Monterey is ready.

Enjoy it!
