Hi!
If you've been following this forum, you may already know that I have a fully working Big Sur machine, and that I wrote a guide for this laptop, coming from Mojave (https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...using-opencore-efi-installation-guide.224591/)
Big Sur works great, everything works. However, now I'm trying to update to the first public beta of MacOS Monterey, and I can't do it. I updated to latest OpenCore & latest kexts, and I even re-did my config.plist. In fact, I ended up deleting the downloaded update, downloading it again, re-doing the EFI folder, but it still can't update.
If I boot from "Macintosh HD", it starts the update process, and I end up getting something related to "No port micro restart (we don't support SMC on this platform)", and the system restarts. I can just select my boot drive and boot into Big Sur again, using the same updated EFI folder, and everything works. But if I reboot and retry updating, the same error occurs. Of course, I tried restoring the NVRAM multiple times too. So, in resume: I have the latest OpenCore, the latest kexts, can boot and use Big Sur without issues, but can't update to Monterey and I don't know why and what else to try.
Attached is the EFI folder I'm using (deleted smuuid and other sensitive info from Platform Info).
