Apple Releases macOS High Sierra 'Golden Master' GM Candidate to Beta Testers

[drumm]

How did you get it to boot? I have a 770GTX and no matter what I try I get a black or white screen and can't get past it. Thanks!!

I just updated Clover to last version and copied apfs.efi from /usr/standalone/i386 to /efi/clover/drivers64. Then updated.

upd. you could find /usr/standalone/i386 inside of installer (right click -> show package content), there will be 2 dmg files (InstallESD.dmg) and second(don't remember name), inside one of them.

There is no App Store Delta Update from GM Candidate on. Always need to download full installer from App Store link.
With Sierra, there were some small changes in build numbers in the last weeks, so beeing on one of the latest betas 7,8 or 8,9 dev, best to wait for GM.
There is no webdriver anyway, so too much work for 8 days till release.
For temporary fix and use of 10.12.6 drivers, just use Google, there is http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/to...pdates-for-macos-high-sierra-update-06052017/ and others where patching of installers NVDAWeb and Policy is explained.
And ohter links. But of course, use at your own risk. I understand knowone supports that just for fun and gets 100 questions.

Softpedia says it is (at least for now) Developer Account only.

This is why it does not appear on the updates section of the App Store. Thoose Who downloaded it today re-downloaded public beta 8, it seems.

I used to install since first beta with developer account, and there definitely is no App Store Delta Update OTA.
GM has always been released only with a full installer package which needs to be downloaded and installed over the existing system.

so if i do install the GM version will it be updated to become the final version?
or do i have to do a new install with the final version released to the puplic to be on the normal track?

Yes. It's not really a difference to OTA / AppStore Update, as the Installer Screen and Download Sizes are the same. Only the process of downloading whole Install Image and running as Inplace Upgrade manually is different.
I wouldn't be suprised if there is a 17362b or c before final release.
But you can leave beta seed and stay on GM as well until 10.13.1. Makes not a real difference, as long as no big bugs communicated.

Normally, as NVIDIA hardware is still fitting some real MacPro's, they should be in programming and build procress since beta 1. That's what a developer (and in nower days it's even public) beta phase is for.
As well as MS will provide Office updates and even did since first betas, i would expect from a company like NVIDIA to do the same with drivers for their products.
A real alternative is not at market, ATI R500 Series support has also to be proven cause the imacs use the laptop variant.
