I created this EFI manually and made sure it’s stable on my machine. Just wanted to share it here in case others have the same laptop or similar specs.

Feel free to ask me anything β€” happy to help others running Intel HD 620 or similar setups!

Great work, bro!Β Have you tested sleep/wake yet? HD 620 laptops often need SSDT-PLUG + proper USB mapping for reliable sleep.
