I have not tried on Mac Pro but tried it on Macbook 2010. I can boot normally but just once in a while need to repatch the Dosdude1 patch. Not quite sure of the problem you have. Just wondering whether you've applied all of the firmware patch before you try Dosdude1?

There were patch needed to make 4,1 to 5,1 then another patch for Mojave firmware upgrade to support NVME SSD. Not quite sure whether that's the reason.

Sifu, mine on 10.15.4 using dosdude. Can i change to opencore and update to 10.15.5? Any specific instructions how to do so?

Are there any places in Malaysia that sell the MacPro-compatible PCIe USB-C cards? Need a good alternative to splurging RM400+ for the Sonnet Allegro cards that local resellers have, when all I want is just ONE (or two) USB3.0 port.
