I can confirm that everything is working fine with Opencore 0.6.3 as before. (with Catalina 10.15.7)

Hello. First I switched my build from Clover to Opencore 0.6.3 using the same OS install. This took me some time as I was completely ignorant about Opencore, but after several hours I succeed in migration to Opencore 0.6.1, then update to 0.6.3 and finally Updating from Catalina 15.7 system preferences.

Update was very smooth, actually like a real Mac. Just press the button and leave the system on its own. After 20 minutes +- I got the Big Sur welcome screen.

No issues known at this moment.

My build is with Gigabyte Designare Z390 and AMD Radeon 580

I updated also. Everything seems to work just fine except sleep. It goes to sleep but it won't wake up. Sometimes it will wake up but show blank screen so I have to reboot and sometimes it will display the login screen but it doesn't respond to the keyboard or any mouse clicks. I 've tried a couple SMBIOS (iMac 15,1 / 19,1 / 19,2 an 18,something) but still no luck. Sleep used to work from the days of High Sierra.

I am using the latest clover and at first tries I was getting the EB|LOG timestamp error so after searching a bit I set SetupVirtualMap to true in clover configurator and so I managed to complete the installation (it took a while, a few times I thought it was stuck). Also I updated AppleALC, Lilu, VirtualSMC and WhateverGreen.

I made the switch to OpenCore, and Big Sur runs perfectly. Hats off to the folks behind OC for a meticulously documented set of instructions.

Fantastic! Did a new install and moved to open core, super happy about the experience!

edit my plist.config and add "quirks" section, update some KEXTs, update Clover to latest (all as Tony recommend)

but run in hangups and errors

then clear my KEXT folder from some unnecessary and old stuff and after 20 minutes and 2-3 restarts get my Big Sur 11.0.1, sound works great without any adjusting

great work Apple and You, experts there and great hackintosh family

Works like a charm. Followed the steps en after a few reboots it is up-and-running.

Success!
Could not get the update installer to boot using Clover -> switched to openCore 6.3 with recommended settings for my system and everything worked first try.

After more than 5 years of hackingtoshing fine my PC is working like a real Mac. Flowless! OpenCore is magic!
All this years Clover was giving us chance to use macOS, it's time to go now.
It's running on a 8 years old hardware that Apple drop of support for Big Sur.
