Very late to the party here
I moved away from SMBIOS macmini6,2 over Xmas and generated/validated a new iMac14,4 SMBIOS which worked fine on macOS Catalina and allowed Software Update to prompt me to upgrade to macOS Big Sur.
I held off the upgrade and backed up Catalina. I finally pulled the trigger over the weekend and had no issues nor interruptions with the macOS Big Sur upgrade process
P.S. I have read on the Dortania website that Apple have plans to drop support for HD 4000 Graphics in macOS Big Sur so an incremental macOS update may break support for my current hardware.
