Updated from inbuilt installer, took approx 45 minutes and 4 reboots and without previous boot-args.

Dumbe question, does that mean no boot-args or just removed vsmgen=1?

Big Sur beta 4. can't play youtube with safari. Anyone having the same issues?

Me. Netflix works, Amazon Video works, Apple TV+ works, YouTube freezes. No idea why - might be a hack they are using to push users towards Chrome and it is broken on newest Safari build... Or could it be because I do not have a 4k/5k screen on my "iMacPro"?

I have a LG HDR 4K Display

Can the "Update" Volume be deleted once fully installed and is it normal you can't "see" Big Sur Boot Volume from Catalina?

big sur beta 4 installed fine, still no Big Sur in picker built in just the name of the nvme drive, anyone had luck with kext loading? I can go though the kext install with hackintool but although it place the kext in OC kext folder it doesnt appear loaded in hackintool?

 

for me kext is only able to be loaded at a fresh install

Smoothest update of the summer... 3-4 reboots, using pre-release opencore 0.6.0 and kexts (built prior to opencore 0.6.0 release).  Running smooth on my Comet Lake.

Best of all, first update of the summer where my Aquantia 10 gbps pcie card FIRES ON!! Still using the patch from Beta3...

Hello,

When you say Netflix, etc. works, is that in Safari?

Might I ask how'd you get DRM to work? Netflix, AppleTV etc doesn't work for me... Is it in the boot-args?

 

Thanks.

someone has encountered this bug??? from other hacks I can access the shared folders in the big sur of the Z370 and T-RyZo
from big sur I can surf the web, but I can't access any PC/hack/NAS that are in the local LAN

I took an unorthodox approach and changed my SMBIOS to iMacPro1,1 instead of a iMac19,1. I do use an external video card and not the iGPU (this is known to be broken). I also had to fix all CPU PM via SSDTs. A lot of work, to be honest.

Different people, different problems, YouTube is working for me so far but we will see.

I navigated back and forth a couple times, video is playing... but I cannot switch them to another mode (theatre or full screen) without it crapping and doing the same over and over. Annoying beta 4 wins the beta competition (so far...)

Hi guys

Can you take a look at my issue here? I've tried everything to fix it.

Also, take a look at my custom OpenCore theme that looks just like Big Sur icons.

Thanks

@Andrey1970 first and foremost, 8k ЕБЕНА МАТЬ! Yeah, no clue why they are not advertising 8k - maybe because their monitors are still all the way up to 6k. Impressive, though.

[Partime]

OK, I have preboot as my boot icon.

Also have a blinking MacOS disk in my startup disk.  yep, the icon blinks a couple of time and disappears.
