Why would you disable SIP?  It's unnecessary to update macOS

As far as I know, it IS necessary to disable SIP to keep 3rd Party Kexts, (Lilu, Whatevergreen, etc.), functioning.  IF SIP is Enabled,

these Unsigned Kexts are locked down/kept from running by MacOS.

 

SIP MUST be AT LEAST partially disabled with 67080000 for Big Sur.  I'm thankfully still on Mojave 10.14.6 with latest Security

Update.  My SIP IS partially Disabled in Clover 4359 with 0x67 in config.plist Clover Configurator.  Prior to that, in High Sierra 10.13.6 with latest

Security Update, same clover, in config.plist Clover Configurator was 0x3 to partially Disable SIP.

 

Lilu and Whatevergreen are just 2 Examples of Unsigned Kexts, there are MANY other Kexts that require SIP to be partially

Disabled.

@TimeLord04, this is a Big Sur 11.2 thread so your comments about other macOS versions are off-topic. It is true that it's no longer necessary to disable SIP in Big Sur when you use OpenCore.

Well, at last glance, MANY people are STILL on Clover.  That is, NOT everyone runs OpenCore.  I've studied OpenCore, and see the advantages, but

still don't trust myself to configure OpenCore for my Hackintosh.  I read all over these Forums and Threads, and have seen pluses and minuses to

both Boot Loaders.  I'm in the group that chooses to stick with Clover.

 

To each his/her own.  ymmv.

TotalFinder will not work without SIP disabled. I will not give up TF until the bitter end!

You misunderstood. I was referring to bless hence the "if"

Ok.  Now that the issue of csr-active-config 0x867 has been resolved to restore updates, only full installers are offered.   Did someone mention in a previous post that it is necessary to retain the prior installation snapshot in order to get the incremental updates, say from 11.2.2 to 11.2.3 without software update downloading and upgrading with the full installer?

 

Also I note that clover 5131 boots a recent Big Sur update but as soon as two system mods were made (change login graphic and ntfs read-write enabled) and a new snapshot created, the boot fails with clover.   Can anyone explain this?

 

Is anyone having trouble chainloading OpenCore from GRUB2 after OC version 0.6.4?
