Post-Installation:

Facts:

As you know, WiFi(+BlueTooth) doesn't work and there is no ethernet port on this laptop, that's why HoRNDIS.kext for USB tethering is the only blessing for us.
By putting this kext in your EFI you will be able to use the internet via USB tethering in recovery mode. I think, it also works in installation stage.
I used sonoma raw by olarila + balenaEtcher to make offline installer.
