I have just built a new Hackintosh based on this EFI but failed to align the BIOS version followed your document. I spent a whole day to deal with this mistake.

In the beginning, the server worked with BIOS version 2.45 and I got into messy situations when the server booted with the EFI. Sometimes the server kept a black screen, but other times the server was stuck in a dead loop of rebooting automatically. All disasters were eliminated after upgrading the BIOS to 2.61.

It should be a useful experience with this model (Z440), thanks again. The new hackintosh works under macOS 14.6.1. Please close this ticket when you read it.
