Cyberdevs Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 @Skyfallkavu in addition you're gonna need the RestrictEvents.kext and boot-arg: revpatch=sbvmm to get the incremental updates. Reverting the root patches ins't enough to get the incremental updates. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverting the root patches ins't enough to get the incremental updates. Yeah, that's what I was confirming testing. Without RE.kext and the boot arg I'd fail to download anything at all. I'm good with full installer because I'm too lazy to reboot to revert root patches. Whats a few more gb download anyway. Edit: Also happy to report Music.app is fixed in this beta Edited August 8, 2023 by Skyfallkavu 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809878 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 @BALDY_MAN That error is because you've booted from an EFI folder other than the one you've used to install or boot Sonoma initially from. use your original EFI. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809893 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFIAK The only way to find which one is the right one is to boot with them one by one and go to Disk Utility and if there's a -snapshot after the Sonoma APFS volume is the wrong one. The correct one should only have two volumes and no snapshot after them 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I keep two EFI Folders (and updated with latest OC files and kexts) at the ready, One to force updates and the other to get my WIFI Connection operational again. I personally prefer to revert the patches, get the update and install it and then re-apply the patches 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809898 Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeveedee Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) I upgraded my HackBookPro6,2 from Sonoma Beta 4 -> Beta 5 without any issues. I launched the upgrade and left it unattended. The upgrade was complete when I returned, so I don't know how long or how many reboots. Here are some specifics about my upgrade / configuration: My OC 0.9.4 EFI has AMFI and Library Validation full enabled with AMFIPass.kext 1.3.1 and -amfipassbeta boot-arg. AMFI remained enabled during the upgrade and after. I never need to disable AMFI on this hack. I connected my hack to wired Ethernet during the upgrade, since I suspected that the update would break Wi-Fi (until OCLP patches were re-applied) and just wanted to make sure I maintained a network connection during the upgrade and during OCLP post-install patching When I first attempted the upgrade, the macOS Installer was stuck in a boot-loop. I needed to enable kernel patches here in order to perform the upgrade. After the upgrade completed, I removed the kernel patches (I keep two config.plists just for this reason) I launched the upgrade via macOS OTA. OTA downloaded the full installer (I did not revert root patches before upgrading) Spoiler After the upgrade completed, OCLP automatically prompted me to re-apply post-install patches for NVidia Tesla and Wi-Fi. My EFI includes an ACPI patch which spoofs my BCM 94352HMB Wi-Fi IOName as "pci14e4,43a3" to permit OCLP patcher to detect my Wi-Fi. This is a permanent ACPI patch that remains during normal operation, since it only affects OCLP patching and does not affect normal Wi-Fi operation. Spoiler After OCLP's post-install patches installed, I rebooted and once again had working Wi-Fi. Spoiler This upgrade from Beta 4 -> Beta 5 was painless. As expected, NVidia Tesla does not yet have full graphics acceleration and won't until OCLP Devs tackle non-metal patching for NVidia Tesla. About This Hack Spoiler Well done, OCLP Devs! EDIT: I am posting this with Firefox running in Sonoma 14.0 Beta5 over Wi-Fi. Sonoma / Firefox is incredibly responsive, even though OCLP patching for full NVidia Tesla graphics acceleration is not yet complete. Sonoma Beta5 is more responsive on this hack than Sonoma Beta4. My configuration is as follows: Dell Latitude E6410, Nvidia Tesla Graphics SMBIOS MBP6,2 Open Core 0.9.4 Wi-Fi IOName spoofed as "pci14e4,43a3" for OCLP post-install Wi-Fi patches) VMM kernel patches for Sonoma upgrade (removed after the upgrade) AMFI and Library Validation fully enabled (AMFIPass.kext 1.3.1, -amfipassbeta boot-arg) Edited August 8, 2023 by deeveedee 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809901 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 @eSaF MacPro7,1 and iMacPro1,1 also have the T2 chips but the same procedure applies to both of them. I've almost spent a whole day testing installing and updating Sonoma on two different rigs using both SMBIOS settings and the only thing that was required was to add the RestricEvents.kext and the revpatch=sbvmm boot args with reverting the root patches before performing the update. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809905 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never revert root patches prior to updating. And I've been applying root patches on my Laptop eversince Monterey. Simply because the full installer is downloaded everytime on a system with applied root patches because this breaks the security seal of the volume. So updating/upgraiding in this case completely reinstalls macOS as a whole anyway. 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/356881-pre-release-macos-sonoma/page/55/#findComment-2809922 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloverLeaf Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Beta 5 definitely feels snappier! Notifications are FIXED - ✓ My laptop is operating at normal temperatures again hovering around 47'C browsing/lite use and ~70'C under load (25'C room temp) - ✓ GPU spikes when using and after closing Apple TV app still persist - X Airportitlwm is broken and prevents the system to boot - X I can say this update is more + than - since we have alternatives for the Wi-Fi functionality.
