From app store coming in at 4.39 GB... must not be a full installer. I canceled it for now. Need full installer, not showing via gibMacOS nor fetch as of yet.
... and the others (no Monterey )

Now the 4.39 GB installer comes but I have to wait for the full installer as well.

Surprisingly fast update from Sonoma > Sequoia. Used the direct 4.39 GB Software Update, latest kexts and OpenCore 1.0.1.

Intel WIFI is not working natively in my system with v2.3.0 airportitlwm method.

With itlwm_v2.3.0_stable.kext and HeliPort app, I can use wifi, but not native and no iPhone mirroring.

Not able to update my system. When I restart and select the installer from OC boot menu, it displays a circle with a line in between logo and then restarts back to OC menu. I am using iMacPro1,1 SMBIOS.
