I got both Big Sur and Monterey installed at this point, but for Monterey I don't have sound working. I don't see anything in your comments about doing anything to get sound working from Big Sur. You mentioned the wifi not working in Monterey and the fix for that, but sound?

I got things working again through a mismash of things. is the normal order of events that the SSD is booted from the macos install initially from the drive, which then installs the data? why doesn't it show up for me when I do the install? Any ideas on this?

I mean I can't get it back to the state it was before. I don't know what magic incantation I did then but I'm closer I think so how does the `- Data` show up in opencore so I can boot from it again? thank you

so after running the installer on the installed drive, a new volume is created on the container called "volname - Data". When it worked the one time, I was able to boot from it, and that's when the OS worked. WHy does this not show up normally?

derp. The wrong audio output was selected by default after the install =. thanks

I got everything working but sound now. Any idea what to look for here?
