This time a sequential OTA update of just 10 GB!  

 

 

 

With macOS 27 beta 2 (26A5368g), Apple appears to have fixed the following issues on my MacBook Pro M1:

1. Keyboard and trackpad now work immediately after waking from sleep or opening the lid.
2. No Wi-Fi issues after waking from sleep or opening the lid.
3. Secondary click now works perfectly when configured as "Click in Bottom Right Corner".

Interestingly, Apple released Kernel Debug Kit macOS 26.7 build 26A5368g, apparently confusing macOS 27 beta 2 with macOS 26.7. 

 

 

 The very bad part of this funny confusion at first glance:

 

Any future Tahoe 26.7 KDK release is unlikely to carry a build number higher than 26A. Consequently, Kernel Debug Kit macOS 26.7 build 26A5368g - which actually belongs to macOS 27 beta 2 (Golden Gate) — would not be compatible with macOS Tahoe.

 

If Apple keeps this naming scheme, OCLP's automatic KDK matching could become problematic beyond macOS Tahoe 26.6, as it may no longer be possible to reliably distinguish Tahoe 26.7 KDKs from Golden Gate KDKs based on build numbering alone. This assumes, of course, that macOS 26.7 will be the final major Tahoe release. 🤕

 

Whether this is an actual mistake or an intentional change in Apple's KDK naming scheme remains unclear. If intentional, OCLP and similar tools may eventually need to adjust their KDK matching logic accordingly.

 

I have already submitted a Feedback Assistant report to Apple regarding this apparent KDK naming issue.
