[pre-release] macOS Sequoia

The new Siri is pretty special in 15.1

No issues during the update. The issue after the update is that I can't see mounted EFI partition on my desktop. 

Anyone with the same issue? It's clearly mounted but it doesn't show up on desktop. 

I see all drives but EFI partitions.

 

[Max.1974]

Yes @Irish_Man I gave alert above

With this command and EFI folder deleted by another macOS Sonoma works this command

 

sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk4s1 /Volumes/efi 

 

 

When I use that command I get this:

Does this mean that if I try to mount the EFI in Sequoia using OCAT, OpenCore Configurator or any other used to mount it, it will not mount and only the terminal command that @Max.1974 just shared would mount it?

My container disk was changes by Apple that put a lot of garbage on EFI partition, need delete all this "trashes". 

 

My real disk install is disk 4 but Apple "synthesized" to disk7

 

 😆

yes @jlrycm

Thanks @Max.1974 fortunately I’m using the EFI that the macOS sonoma disk has and I’m not relying on the EFI that the Sequoia disk has. I hope this thing that was done to you guys it’s a bug or something that is not happening a lot / will be fixed by Apple in the near future.

@Max.1974  tnx, that command works.

Btw, I didn't find any extra files inside the EFI folder besides Apple folder that we get after every update.

I had a very similar problem, although much worse.  My rig finished the upgrade, but Finder was useless and would not stabilize.  All I got was a spinning beach ball and rebooting, relaunching Finder, well nothing would work.  Couldn't get to any of my drives or, of course, the EFI partition.  So I backed off to 24A5298h, which I think is Beta 4.

 

Interesting that Irish_Man has similar software to me (12700K, 64GB of RAM (3800 MHz), RX 6900, and Mac Pro SMBIOS.  I am running Opencore 1.0 and he's running 1.01.  I think I'll let this sit for a while and check out the next beta or just review what others have found with this update.

Thanks and important to said that its not works again until restart if you try use some app to open or close EFI.

 

I thinks that exist some solution when boot in recovery mode like csrutil authenticated-root clear or some better command

 

Works to me close all programs an run again command after type in terminal: 

 

KillAll Finder 

 

Then you can root again: 

 

sudo -i

Then run your original EFI with this commands 

 

mkdir /Volumes/efi 

 

 sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk4s1 /Volumes/efi 

disk4s1 is my original Nvme

With Clover I have no issues with my similar hardware too.

Weirdly OCAT works fine and can see the EFI so it must be mounted. Can't actually see it in finder though. OpenCore Patcher has stopped working - it tells me it's patched but then on reboot it wants to patch it again.

[Max.1974]

OCLP here works fine and update all my Hacks without erros! Im using Clover compiled and kexts compiled

Need check your RE version and revpatches 

 

 

Try this version from @lorys89 GitHub

Don't forget put -lilubetaall 

Thanks my friend @MaLd0n for your tutorial 

 

 

How to mount EFI partition on Sequoia

[galisrule]

macOS Sequoia finally went to sleep must have been real real tired

No problem with OCLP on my machine.

Just the invisible EFI Partition, OCAT can mount and see it but I can't. 

 

I sent a stern scathing review to Apple in Feedback, threatening to spend all my energy on windoze.

That should scare em. 

Hmm I get this error when trying to patch with OCLP

" Error Domain=KMErrorDomain Code=71 "Invalid argument: Unable to read contents of file at /System/Volumes/Update/mnt1/System/Library/KernelCollections/BootKernelExtensions.kc" "

That file is there but...

Works fine on the previous beta. I'm using OCLP 1.6 nightly btw and just updated the EFI and kexts today.

edit: I blessed the folder per this post on reddit and it's good now

To Open EFI need run this commands

 

 

sudo -i 

 

Type your password and then 

 

mkdir /Volumes/efi 

 

sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk4s1 /Volumes/efi (need put diskXsY when your disk is X and your partition is Y)

 

Maybe will be necessary Open your EFI from another macOs version, like Sonoma or Ventura 

 

 

Hmm... I get a similar error...

Sorry! it's all right!

At this time, I don't have Beta 5 in Software Update ??? (Z390 Clover ) 🥲

 

Hi @Max.1974 and all Hackintoshers

 

I use a old tool "ESP Mounter Pro" who work well under Sequoia:

 

Put the app on desktop or application folder, click on it.  A icon appears in finder menu bar. Then you can mount and unmount EFI partition without using Terminal.

Olá@Máx.1974e todos os Hackintoshers

 

Eu uso uma ferramenta antiga "ESP Mounter Pro" que funciona bem sob Sequoia:

 

Coloque o aplicativo na área de trabalho ou na pasta de aplicativos, clique nele. Um ícone aparece na barra de menu do localizador. Então você pode montar e desmontar a partição EFI sem usar o Terminal.

Hello my dear friend, thank you very much for your kindness and attention, I have also been using the same tool for many years, always good and faithful, it never lets us down, right? But unfortunately, Sequoia beta 5 brought this evil from Apple, precisely to stop OCLP users and us, the Hackintoshers. 

Yes, I use it daily, it is my main and first tool installed in a clean installation. 

Thank you for your attention, and God bless us all!!

 

[kaoskinkae]

Someone is experiencing the same thing as me in beta 5 of macOS 15 Sequoia does not allow the mounting of EFIs with either OpenCore Configurator or ESP Mounter Pro

[Max.1974]

@Kaoskinkae yes, take a look posts above, please!

 

We all had this issues from Sequoia Beta 5
