Just update OpenCore and kexts and you'll be fine 😉

UEFI Secure Boot
I will not give detailed instructions here. See details at here.
You will need linux. However for simplicity I will use CloudShell.

user@cloudshell:~$ rm -rf *.efi && cd .. && mv OC .. && cd .. && zip -r OC.zip OC
user@cloudshell:~$ cloudshell download OC.zipYou now have the necessary files. Let's continue here.
Note:
- Keep
ISK.keyandISK.pemso that each OpenCore upgrade you will only need to sign the necessary files and replace them in theEFI/OCdirectory. You won't need to repeat the key generation and key adding steps. - To booting
KeyTool.efi. Let's renameKeyTool.efitoBOOTx64.efiand put it inUSB/EFI/BOOT
