    I have a Macbook Pro 10,1 (Early 2013) and it has an Opencore Legacy Launcher with MacOS Sequoia installed.

    OpenCore Legacy Patcher 1.1.0 now okay on 2017 MacBook Pro?

    OpenCore Legacy Patcher (OCLP) 1.0.0 made macOS Sonoma available to many Macs that could run Ventura but had been dropped from the list of supported machines able to run Sonoma. One big exception were several 2017 Mac models with a T1 chip. I just discovered that OCLP 1.1.0 has been out for...
