I had several attempts to download and start when it would say it can't complete the update, no real reason given. I noticed this was with a small downloaded updater (about a gig, maybe a gig and a half?) in the systems setting panel. After a restart and a few hours later (when I was doing other...

FWIW, I read through the documentation about this vulnerability and my understanding is that a hackintosh would be - hypothetically anyway - vulnerable; the articles refer to macs not being vulnerable but I think that's only relevant for actual mac hardware. whether that's significant enough...

Thanks for the notice, I would have never thought to check given these aren't new boards. Mine is the Z390m (non-Gaming), which seems pretty similar. The new BIOS is F7, even more vague explanation of what the update addresses ('Addresses potential UEFI vulnerabilities. (LogoFAIL)'. That is a...

Also no issues, Opencore 0.9.7

I have a question that's a bit different: anyone know of a way to prevent a specific app from re-launching this way? Or even just delaying that app when relaunching? I have a problem that if my mac reboots with music open (power outage or the occasional crash), the drive with the music folder...

The M1 battery life is INSANE. So good. I wanted the maglet power but frankly, I charge it so infrequently, who cares.

Frankly, I probably waited too long to just bite the bullet and get a proper laptop; even though I expect I'll keep using the desktop hack as my main axe for some time to come. And that's what convinced me really (apart from having a bit of money from selling some stuff): I had to stop thinking...

Well done, and thanks for updating others. I'm holding off - just don't have the bandwidth right now and been so happy with how stable my machine is right now. I also want to just let Sonoma settle down and stabilize - lots of updates and all that (error catching, I guess). I have Sonoma on an...

Me too - although when I look at system info it is showing BCM43xx (not 943), and I think these are the same cards (the Fenvi, that is). Hope I've not confused things further here with this comment.

I'm going to wait and see - but it is certainly encouraging that they've found a way to get around it this early, even if all in beta etc. The promising bit - it seems to me - is that if they can get it to work in OCLP, there should be some hope it can be made to work in regular opencore...

Very sad. Does this mean that wifi basically won't work anymore? I can live without bluetooth, but wifi - only with great difficulty.

Indeed. Took the plunge and upgraded the BIOS. (This is the M non-gaming motherboard, so to f6. I only had a few minor settings so was able to update those without too much difficulty.) New BIOS also has the cfg unlock feature. Apart from a few moments of confusion during the update/reboot...

A question about updating BIOS on Gigabyte motherboards: does it reset everything else on the BIOS, or are the existing settings persistent?

Well that was easier than I'd thought, by far - partly because physically getting the card in didn't actually require any juggling. Side note: very glad I did my thing with the NVME drives before this. Positives: much improved in lightroom (which was what I wanted it for), especially the...

It sounds too easy to be true - it's a trap of some sort, right, pastryman?
