If the patcher ran without adding the above mentioned resource to Universal-Binaries.dmg without an error message, then you definitely did not use the latest available build from the sequoia development branch 

Hi my friend, yes im using patcher correctly last build, and tested on first Sequoia beta, but even using new kexts from Italian forum and many people here, to me I got errors now. New install fresh occurs issues.

 

Im update to MacPro 7,1 to see and wanting the solutions from coders !!

 

Thanks!! 😉

Can this OCLP 1.6.0 Nightly enable the nVidia GeForce GTX 780 (4GB) graphics acceleration on the iMac late 2013?
Wi-Fi is not that important to me.

When I install macOS Beta versions, I disable Analytics reporting (System Settings > Private & Security > Analytics & Improvements).  

Spoiler

 

Just curious ... is there anyone who has a strong feeling one way or the other about whether these analytics should be enabled or disabled for our hacks?

There are several reasons why one wears Depends.  I wear them so I can sit on freshly painted park benches.

Have you tried this? https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/actions/runs/9635254193

Is it safe to re enable the kexts for "modern wifi" that were created for Sonoma on Sequoia?

I have the max kernel set so they only load up to Sonoma, maybe that is why the patcher is not working for people?
I have not tried the artifacts patchers as of yet, wanted to to check if we can / need to use the kexts from Sonoma first (ioskywalk etc)

@SavageAUS

I've tried without MaxKernel, the right kexts and the nightly OCLP sequoia branch. It barely works. macOS connect with wifi if it's in your saved wifi networks list but there are severe issues with Preview and other apps. 
Don't load modern wifi kexts if root patch is not going to be applied.

The kexts required for modern and legacy wifi are still the same than the once required previously. As far as I am aware, these were lifted from previous versions of macOS that contain the necessary code/settings so that the older cards work. My guess is that they can be loaded with -lilubetaall. Unfortunately, something seems to be wrong with the mainboard of my old Lenovo T530 Laptop so that neither my "modern" Broadcom nor the Intel card I have are recognized any longer, so I can't test it.

To the best of my knowledge, boot-arg -lilubetaall applies only to Lilu.kext and Lilu-dependent kexts/plug-ins (AppleALC, WhateverGreen, etc).  I don't think -lilubetaall boot-arg affects loading the Wi-Fi framework kexts that have been extracted from earlier versions of macOS.  Read more here.

 

EDIT: Control loading / non-loading of Wi-Fi framework kexts with Open Core's MinKernel / MaxKernel in config.plist.

For me, only khronokernel's build of OCLP will let me attempt to install root patches.  However, it fails every time because it cannot find the WiFiAgent.app in the Universal Binaries.  I saw that someone managed to get the wifi root patch to work, at least partially.  What method was used? Does anyone know how it was accomplished?

[deeveedee]

@mnfesq I'm waiting for more OCLP developer progress, but when I last built and tested OCLP 1.6.0, I extracted the missing components from the 1.5.0 source to allow a successful build and OCLP execution (although OCLP patching did not work, as expected).

Thanks.  BTW, having grown up in Illinois, I am very familiar with Peoria.  I now live in Portland, OR, which I contend is the Peoria of the Pacific.  Both towns were built along a river at the beginning of the 20th century and the homes have very similar architecture.

Try disabling the NootedRed kext in your EFI, it will speed up installation and avoid the scary verbose messages.

hi Craig Hazan,

I installed Sequoia to my ryzen5 with Vega 8 Asus Laptop but it seems like Vega 8 is not supported in Sequoia cause when I disabled NootRED.kext I got to desktop then when I enabled it it keeps rebooting after I put password .... I wonder if there is support for Radeon Vega 8 in Sequoia

There’s no support until the public beta is released, (for NootedRed at least), a few weeks away. Did you reset NVRAM before you re-booted?. My 4700G is also Vega 8 and doesn’t have an issue in Sequoia Beta 2, which suggests to me something else is up.

Hi!

 

Does anybody else have problems with iCloud Drive?

I can't connect from Finder to it, even I am using my iCloud account

I am on the Beta 2  - 24A5279h

Haswell with MacPro7,1 SMBios

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

@URBANsUNITED

I have no issue, as @eSaF 

[URBANsUNITED]

OK!

 

Thanks guys!

Then I'll have to search the reason in my system/network...

That's corect. But the point is:  as long as not all kexts that rely on Lilu have been updated to support Sequoia, -lilubetaall is still needed, especially on laptops. I rather use one more boot-arg to avoid a kernel panic than waiting for a dev to increment the version check in the source code of his kext by 1.

 

As far as Min/Max Kernel setting is concerned: there's absolutely no point in using this option for kexts which are mandatory on macOS 12+ to get the legacy Wi-Fi working. You may want to set Min Kernel, Max needs to be left empty. Otherwise you might as well spend money on compatible hardware.

[lorys89]

I don't use -lilubetaall on the notebook and all kexts work.

Ok.  Not trying to debate you or question your preferences for the use of -lilubetaall.  It's just that you originally stated that -lilubetaall was required to load the Wi-Fi framework kexts extracted from earlier macOS.  I was merely stating that It is not.

That may be true in the tests that you ran.  Without setting MaxKernel to 23.99.99 for 802.11 kexts on my HackBookPro6,2, Sequoia Beta 1 and Sequoia Beta 2 do not install.  I merely stated that MinKernel and MaxKernel can be used to control loading of the Wi-Fi framework kexts.  I wasn't trying to say that you needed use the Kernel limits and I have no problem with the way you use the Kernel limits.

 

EDIT: I fully expect to be able to remove the MaxKernel limit after OCLP fully supports Sequoia.

Successfully installed macOS Sequoia Beta 2 onto my 5700U GENmachine and NootedRed seems to working well so far!. Disabling the NootedRed.kext during installation is recommended, macOS installs so much quicker, took an hour from editing the EFI to Desktop.
