I added the intel G graphics -igfxcdc and -igfxdvmt boot args but still gives the same error 😕 

 

Operate the iGPU in VESA mode first.

Since it is an iGPU that is not supported by default, it is recommended to complete the macOS installation first rather than making various attempts to activate the iGPU from the macOS installation process.


I need a full log screen of the part where booting hangs or kernel panics in the XNU/Darwin kernel.

Note that OpenCore's log file does not contain logs from the XNU/Darwin kernel. Boot.efi & Prelinked Kernel Only logs up to the loading stage are saved.

 

And, looking at WhateverGreen's source code, the -igfxdvmt boot arg is coded to not work on non-Intel Ice Lake systems.

https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/blob/master/WhateverGreen/kern_igfx_memory.cpp#L36-L40

https://github.com/acidanthera/WhateverGreen/blob/master/WhateverGreen/kern_igfx.hpp#L736-L755


So, even if -igfxdvmt boot arg is applied, the patch does not work.
If you use the Debug version of WhateverGreen and the -wegdbg boot arg, you should be able to see that the log is showing up.
It looks like you have to change it directly in the BIOS settings or force it using RU.efi.
However, try graphics-related attempts later after installing macOS.

Thank you! Will give this a try later.
