Excellent.  So I can turn AdviseFeatures off?

 

I updated my post.

Yes. It is fixed in ExtendedFirmwareFeatures/ExtendedFirmwareFeaturesMask.

I did try and create a USB install disk and as eSaF noted, it failed.  Haven't tried it with securebootmodel set just yet, but remember, I'm currently on 072....

 

I have 073 working on my Z490, but it won't boot on my Z370.  I have to do some research as to why, and I think I'm just going to wait this one out on the Z370.

Try with the lates OC Commit - https://dortania.github.io/builds/?product=OpenCorePkg&viewall=true - you may have a better chance, see the posts by @Andrey1970.

Have you launched the app or created the usb?
Because if I launch the app it seems to work

 

 

but if I try to create the usb it says that the installer is not valid

 

TINU app 

 

I'm wrong, or the installer has some problem ... I downloaded it 2 times 🤔

Clean install was done by Latest Commit of OpenCore

When you say clean install, was that from a created usb drive?

There is no way  to use the Install Assistant it falled everytime

Its a Crapy update from Apple and crapy Installer macOS

I guess this is one of the many times I'm thankful I follow this thread.

 

I was about to do the update to Monterey PB7 tonight (well, this morning now), so while waiting for it to download, I pulled up this thread and started reading.

 

I'm so glad I did, because afterwards I quickly updated to the latest build of OpenCore 0.7.4 (downloaded from Dortania), and this let me successfully complete the upgrade to beta 7 with no issues.

 

I'm very grateful for all the sleuthing of everyone who contributes to this thread, and I hope this will be the last hiccup before Monterey gets released (my theory is that Apple is holding it back for a hardware event next month).

For me I just copied my EFI to a usb and changed SMBIOS to 17.1 and it all updated and installed perfectly. Was quite a quick update I must say

No, you can't say that. Apple has no obligation to seed installers that suit the hacking community.

Something is wrong with the Monterey Beta 7 Full Installer! Once downloaded it is only a 32MB stub file.

Source: https://mrmacintosh.com/macos-monterey-beta-7-update-21a5522h-is-live-whats-new/

 

So before I download the full installer, can someone confirm or disconfirm this?

 

I see there have been a couple of new 074 builds in the last couple hours. One addresses the ExtendedFirmwareFeaturesMask for Monterey. I will try that because I can't get that installer to run, no matter what I do. Tried all of the things suggested so far.

The I211 port is now working with the same old SmallTree kext file under Monterey ß7 on my MSI TRX40 Creator mobo. (The same file works with Catalina-BigSur-Monterey.)

 

The entire time it was broken was due to a macOS problem, not a SmallTree kext problem.

Hack MacBookPro16,2 with Secure boot set in config.plist ApECID=0 and secureBootModel=j214k

I got update b7 proposed to update.

But got this error below. OC bug or bad config.plist ?

 

 

 

Edit: update ok change -> secureBootModel to Disabled and back to j214k

 

Fred

 

 

What about Default, i.e. x86legacy?

Actually we can - True Apple has no obligation to satisfy the needs of the Hack community, but this has happened before in a previous OS X Beta version even to the disappointment of Genuine Mac users who wanted a standalone installer instead of this kind of update. If I remember correctly it caused a tremor in the Mac community to the point that pushed Apple to quickly released a version that could be used on a USB drive.

I downloaded the full Installer via ANYmacOS and the installer is in fact broken (as stated by mrmacintosh) :

I got the full installer because I got the sparse image with munki / macadmin-scripts. (At that time)
Intaller.app is broken, but the contents are elsewhere in the sparse image and copy it to correct app-contents.
Then it is worked.

 

% curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/munki/macadmin-scripts/main/installinstallmacos.py && sudo /usr/bin/python installinstallmacos.py --raw --seedprogram DeveloperSeed

 

Thank you

My result also - No matter how we twist and turn this latest Beta 7 to build on an installer stick, I don't think it was pushed to be a stand alone installer unless it is a massive bug by Apple.

In my Install_macOS_12.0-21A5522h.sparseimage

->Applications->InstallApplications->Install macOS Monterey beta.app->Contents->SharedSupport->SharedSupport.dmg

 

Anyway, I will try again here as well

Just tried again, nothing, wrong path?
Maybe I need to show the GreenPass to get the full installer? 😆

Same for me, although I have beta 7 working from SU, I've tried to download standalone installer and I get an incomplete and small in size package.

Clean install using USB installer. Install time 30 min.

Tips to repair Install Monterey App.

1. Open package content of Install Monterey App

2. Create SharedSupport folder

3. Open Install Assistant.pkg wit Better Zip and extract SharedSupport.dmg

4. Copy contents of SharedSupport.dmg and paste it to the folder created in step 2.

That's it enjoy.
