Booting and I see some issues with applekeystore operation failing

it then eventually hangs at:

screen dims down slightly when the last line appears. first time i ran it and got this issue the escape key appeared, caps lock and trackpad still responded. second time the trackpad stopped any input, no escape key and no caps lock light

Please also note that the verbose was copied from a photo taken of my screen so it seems to have put some random typos in. These are not present on the actual verbose and are spelt as you would expect (eg opple instead of apple)

I Tried also to install 26.7.1 on my MBP 15,1 2018 with latest OCLP T2... maybe same error? Screenshot Shows last Aktion.. i weiter a few Minutes ... nothing more happens.
@delriouk ·
@andi1963 the exact same as I was getting too. are you on 15,1 and was this the latest OCLPT2 patch? I tried on all standard, level B and both level C with similar issues. Slightly different verbose each time which I did document with photos

Hey @delriouk @andi1963,
Just a quick clarification regarding the settings you mentioned:
"Level B" and "Level C" patches/presets were designed and tested strictly for T1 Macs (specifically MacBookPro14,3), NOT for T2 Macs (like MacBookPro15,1)!
If you apply those T1 patches/presets to a T2 Mac:
AppleSSE/AppleKeyStore).AppleKeyStorefailures you are seeing (unexpected session uid: -1,ret: e00002c2,ret: e0008250) and the subsequent hang atlaunchd/opendirectorydwith an unresponsive Touch Bar/trackpad.We are currently actively developing and testing the necessary fixes for T2 Macs on macOS Tahoe, but nothing has been officially implemented in the patcher yet.
Please revert those T1 Level B/C settings on your T2 machines and hold tight while we work on the proper implementation for T2!

Hello,
I’ve just confirmed via logs now, applekeystore failing was when i selected standard. when level B and C were tested it still loaded the standard ones on. so level B and C were actually never used. All my attempts have been from standard EFI, first on the SSD because i didn’t notice I installed it there instead of my USB. since removed it from my SSD and now boot it from my usb efi. still hangs. it seems to hang in a slightly different place each time
