kaoskinkae Posted September 27, 2025 Share Posted September 27, 2025 There's still no news on when the issue of installing or updating Tahoe on our system will be resolved. As we know, since we're using beta 1, it first lacked Polaris support, and then we lost AppleHDA.kext audio support. As we know, in order to install or update the system, both the betas as I mentioned, as well as the official version and beta 26.1, it's necessary that the WhateverGreen.kext be disabled on the first reboot. After that, the update or installation can be completed with the kext enabled. My question is: Is this problem related only to the WhateverGreen.kext or is it involved in Lilu.kext or OpenCore? I still don't see that the issue has been resolved. A modified kext was released here, but it didn't work correctly. 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361713-pre-release-macos-tahoe-261/page/2/#findComment-2841335 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lo usaré hasta que se encuentre una mejor solución. I will try it in the next available beta and prepare an informative video on my channel. Thank you for pointing out what I asked, which is also a problem related to lilu.kext.

The installation to 26.1 went ok but after OCMOD did its thing and restarted Ive been stuck in a boot loop. Anyone got any tips about this? I am having the same problem but I have determined that the problem is not OCLP-Mod itself. It's the combination of the version of OCLP-Mod you are using and the KDK that you have on your system. If you are doing an upgrade, you are probably using a version of KDK that doesn't work with the version of OCLP-Mod you are using. I know this because I did a fresh install of Tahoe on a test partition and then installed the most recent version of OCLP-Mod. It chose the version of KDK to install and everything worked perfectly. I then upgraded my system partition to Tahoe 26.1 beta and installed the latest version of OCLP-Mod. It installed a different version of KDK than the one it installed on my fresh install and I got the boot loop that you are stuck with. You can try something but it didn't work for me. Try this: Go into recovery mode, select Utilities->Terminal In Terminal, type: mount -uw /Volumes/YourVolumeName (whatever the name you have given your partition on which you installed Tahoe) bless --mount /Volumes/YourVolumeName --bootefi --last-sealed-snapshot reboot That might work for you depending on what type of boot loop you are having.

We'll wait for you to resolve the issue with WhateverGreen.kext, Lilu.kext, and Opencore 10.0.6.

Zevgoli Posted October 4, 2025 Share Posted October 4, 2025 OK. So I tried again to update graphics with OCLP Mod and I let the app do its own thing. This upon reboot initiated a crash and burn. So I recovered again and got to my slow desktop. Ive decided to delete the app and wait till the official OCLP patcher comes out.
