I copied your EFI folder and downloaded Big Sur with macrecovery.py. Is there anything I'm missing?

I copied your EFI folder and downloaded Big Sur with macrecovery.py.

I assume you've changed serial key and uuid, as well as picked proper SMBIOS name as seen here https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/AMD/zen.html#platforminfo

If you have the same CPU and Motherboard there shouldn't be any inconsistencies other than BIOS settings .

If you have a different Ryzen CPU, then be sure to set core count value as shown here. https://github.com/AMD-OSX/AMD_Vanilla#read-me-first

My configurations contains release versions for all kexts and opencore. You might want to turn on verbose boot and open core debugging.

It might be easier to use this repo as a reference and build EFI config from scratch by following dortania guides.
