STLVNUB Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) I thought the updates were just what has changed i.e combo updates like OS X but looks like a whole system upgrade going by its size, witch would be idiotic if the only change was 1 byte Edited July 23, 2021 by STLVNUB 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusion71au Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 macOS 11.5 still works OK on my >10 years old legacy machines eg Spoiler Link to Big Sur 11.5_20G71 InstallAssistant/full installer from Apple's software catalog. Notes Both my legacy desktop and laptop are now able to reliably boot macOS 11.5 with latebloom.kext - try it if you notice random boot hangs/hardware failures on old machines (pre 2012) when enumerating the PCI bus. OpenCore Legacy Patcher ver 0.2.3 now has a nice GUI front end to patch system volume. Non metal graphics acceleration patches still working for nVidia Tesla (eg GeForce 8600GT) and AMD Terascale 2 (eg ATI HD 5770). 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact it was very strange : I shutdown the pc , swap the 2 8 Gb stick .. and voilà , the Bios sees 16Gb et MacOS too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pet1 Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) Was able to update by creating a usb stick installer. Update downloads and goes through the motion of installing, says it's installing with countdown, restarts and still at 11.4. Had to do the same for 11.4 as well. Any ideas why?

clarktim Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Did the update to 11.5, then was informed I needed to update to 11.5.1 Both updates went well from 'software update' control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorenoAv Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I downloaded the update but I can't install it, I'm in clover 5137, and added -lilubetaall to my boot arguments but the update starts and then reboots to install macOS Big Sur from reboot and stays in a loop... The update never progress stays in the same place... Is necessary to add new boot arguments? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check Misc/ SecureBootModel in config.plist and make sure it is set to Disabled also Disable TPM in BIOS until installation, worked for me to get over boot loop. Good luck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eSaF Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 To be honest I really wasn't going to be bothered with this latest version of BS as the release of Monterey is not too far away (hopefully) but with nothing better to do I decided to go ahead and do a clean install with a nightly release of OC (living on the edge as usual). Must say install was trouble free from start to finish. Spoiler 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm using OC 0.72. Would get caught in a reboot loop on the third restart of the update. It managed to fix itself somehow. I rebooted into 11.5 recovery and reinstalled 11.5 over the messed up 11.5.1 and strangely enough was updated to 11.5.1! Reboot into recovery 11.5 and reinstall over the same drive.

SavageAUS Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Updated to 11.5.1 on my Intel laptop with clover just fine, AMD hack with OC updated flawlessly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason, 11.5.1 would not show up in software updates no matter what. I tried the suggestion of reinstalling macOS in recovery mode and it updated to 11.5.1. It took significantly longer to install using this process but otherwise, it worked perfectly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
