Big Sur

For the fisrt install. Boot with EFI_big_sir_boot first. It will take a long time to install Big Sur. So, please be patient. After boot into the system, then replace EFI_big_sir_boot with EFI. Finally, make sure to change Airportitlwm to big sur version.

DO NOT RESTART thinking you're stuck, this will take quite some time(16mins) to complete, otherwise you'll break your installation.
