So far I have successfully upgraded my Mac Air 2018 and an iMac 2014 but not having a lot of success with an older iMac 12,2.

I have done a fresh install on to the internal HDD and Ventura boots albeit slowly and I can login but within a few minutes the iMac freezes. No keyboard or mouse response (both BT) but have tried hardwired as well and that made no difference. The cursor in a text field on the display stops blinking. The iMac runs VERY hot so I thought it might be overheating but running macfancontrol and putting the fans to max didn't make any difference and the temperatures reported were not increasing prior to the freeze.

Patcher is v0.5.2.

Any suggestions appreciated.
