Matgen84 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Hi @all Using Clover, I can download the new Beta. But SMBIOS Imac17,1 failed for my Z390, to update Beta 7. I don't know why 😪 So I want to remove "macOS Install Data" folder. I find 3 strange folder in System/Volumes/Monterey macOS Install Data (11,7Go) --->2021-07-06 Previous Content (256,6Mo) ----> 2021-09-05 (Probably from previous Beta !) Boot folder. (283,2Mo) ---> 2021-09-15. With a lot of .im4m files and the X86_64SURamdisk.dmg Spoiler Spoiler macOS Install Data folder this normal, but the date is incorrect (the version too I suppose). Does anyone have an idea on these files/folders, it is the first time that I notice their presence except macOS Install Data folder of course.

FredWst Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 3 hours ago, Riley Freeman said: Ouch. I hope they haven't completely killed Kepler support as I have a 670 on my Monterey hack. I tried the update yesterday but after I got back to the desktop (after what looked like a successful update) the update was still showing up in Software Update. Checking the build on my system I was still on B6. Looking at the update partition the last_update_result.plist gives this as the reason for the update failing: MSU 1140 (EFI ROM does not support large BaseSystems). I'm using MP6,1 SMBIOS here. Not going to change it for a beta update so I'll sit this one out and see if it's a bug or something more significant. With last OC build b7 update successfully hack iMac18,3. Error -> "EFI ROM does not support large BaseSystems" as gone Fred 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check out the Kepler patch along with the next official OC release but this might be where I call it quits with Monterey and go back to something earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just downloaded it, and will be installing it on my secondary Beta machine soon. That would be very handy, I will download it and put it on a spare USB drive incase of my mischievous dabbling with my present install, don't really want to go the whole way via Beta 6 again. Seems like traffic on the site is pretty heavy at the moment, normally takes me 30 minutes for the D/Load but it is saying 3 hours so I will try again later.

eSaF Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 @meaganmargaret - maybe you didn't get the whole package in the D/Load, try again later see if the same result pops up..........Interesting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be my old Z370..... Have you launched the app or created the usb? Because if I launch the app it seems to work but if I try to create the usb it says that the installer is not valid TINU app I'm wrong, or the installer has some problem ...

Djlild7hina Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) OC has a new build that should let you install.

eSaF Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 @antuneddu when I was doing a fresh install USB drive for Beta 6, I tried to use the latest version of TINU installer and it kept throwing up an error just like that so I use the previous version and I was abled to make the installer. Don’t know if there is a bug in the new version. I am in the process of making an install stick for Beta 7 so will see what happens and report findings.

Irish_Man Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Updated using SecureBootModel set to j160 and iMac17,1 magic. No issues. Another thing, finally my i225-V Ethernet is working. I guess Apple felt sorry for us😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can only install directly from the downloaded Monterey app it self over the previous Beta oppose to making an installer stick. If I remember correctly, Apple did that with a previous Beta can't remember if it was BS or Mojave, maybe someone with more memory cells than I can clarify. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dehjomz Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) My fellow hackintosh gentlemen and gentle ladies, the solution for Beta7 is to update to the latest commit of OpenCore 0.7.4 beta. Ensure PlatformInfo->Generic->AdviseFeatures is set to True. See the latest commit here: https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/commit/1cb8490fd60f6b5f983d42e5bbf08e3d2d43d8f6 Edit: According to @Andrey1970 AdviseFeatures need not be enabled. Using 'Default' SecureBootModel: Success! Edited September 22, 2021 by dehjomz 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the latest commit I don't think mine was ever any different from way back and yet I still had to jump through hoops to install. Also running the latest OC nightly version. Hang on - so what is the correct setting - True or False? - Ok I just read @Andrey1970 post so going forward I will try False in future Updates/Installs.

Partime Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 update.....so using the full installer after the install was done I got into a loop. I just booted to my backup drive, changed to imac17,1 and now the loop stops and the install finished. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
