Hi, I have same laptop, different CPU, trying Catalina. Installation worked just fine, but after that macOS didn't want boot. I had to use USB 2.0 pendrive, use USB2.0 port (right side of the laptop) and instead of just copying your EFI folder on my EFI partition - I had to also redownloaded Lilu and regenerate all serial number possible on SMBIOS tab, after that the macOS booted properly to setup screen (languge select). Please reconsider choosing another language that Russian (or another cyrylic specific) - it's almost impossible to read anything when you are not native :D

I'm just leaving this here for another people seeking help with this laptop.

Thanks for your work, I'll update when I'm completely finish with that and post changes here! :)

EDIT: turns out that above instructions were enough to make all works! Even imessage works properly, after 2nd reboot! Maps and Find my also shows normal/regular map, instead of black background (when I was using macOS as VM).
