Lost audio in the update. Tried the previous method of mounting EFI and running ALC120 command to no benefit. Looking for solutions as audio jack isn't listed any longer.

For those of you using Lilu.kext and NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext for your iMac17,1 system definition, those kexts have yet to be updated. See pastrychef's post.

Are Cuda drivers also updated?

Our hardware is rather similar... I wonder if it will go as smoothly for me, my first system update! will update clover ofc.

Which version Clover' do you use? if you are using up to v4.0 yes you can make smoothly update. I always using latest version Clover.

Well that was a trauma of sorts!

First time in a long time that a minor point upgrade has gone skew-whiff.

Though I used system definition 14,1 and don't use Lilo etc I got a black screen after boot.

Okay, I forgot to tick the "Install to ESP" option when I upgraded Clover to the latest, as advised. My mistake.

In this situation I discovered even more of the intricacies of using Terminal to rescue a system than I wanted to. I also discovered that quite a few standard Linux/Unix commands were no longer working. (Try "unzip" for example). Nothing would re-install Clover from Terminal (that I could manage).

So I had to restore 10.12.3 - which was as rock-solid as before.

Then I re-installed Clover with the correct tick-box and the mounted EFI partition open before me so I could see what was happening. All went fine so I rebooted and then took the plunge and installed the Combo update to 10.12.4 again.

Everything is as it should be, all working once more. Networks, sound and audio.

Surprised we needed a whole new Clover install just for a point update. Anyone know what changed so dramatically from 10.12.3 to 10.12.4 beyond the bug-fixes and NightShift?

Yes

I updated with no issues. Prior to the update, i updated clover. I also downloaded the Nvidia web drivers. Then installed the update, installed the video drivers and done.

For me it was as easy as downloading and installing the combo update, and then the updated web driver.

Please be aware I'm not to swift and I have low knowledge of all this. I'm just hopping if things work.
