Couldn't Boot Catalina after Encrypting Drive with FileVault #146

2009 MacBookPro 5,3. Samsung 870 QVO 2tb SSD.

Catalina Patcher worked fine... I was able to run Catalina for about 2 weeks.

Encrypted Drive with FileVault ... couldn't boot. Decrypted drive ... able to boot Catalia again.

This issue may have nothing to do with FileVault encryption. It could be the same as #147. I could not get past the Apple Logo and had to reboot from the Catalina Patcher USB stick.
