Hello, From the screenshot, there isn't a clear kernel panic. The logs repeatedly show: shared_region_check_np(...) failed forcing CS_RUNTIME launchd service errors These messages are usually symptoms, not the root cause. For a Ryzen 5 5600 + B550 + RX 6600 XT Hackintosh, the most likely causes are: AMD kernel patches are missing, outdated, or don't match your Monterey version. Your EFI/OpenCore version is outdated. BIOS settings are incorrect (Disable CSM, Enable Above 4G Decoding, Disable Secure Boot). Wrong SMBIOS (use iMacPro1,1 or MacPro7,1 for AMD).
