IS SIP disabled/

[CLOD-HOPPER]

Hello, Mac wizards. This posting is about using Monterey, but a few things are involved. In this case, Monterey has been installed on an early 2009, 24-inch iMac. To do this, I used Open Core Legacy Patcher. It seems to be working surprisingly well, but it is slow (it's due to have an SSD installed soon).
I wanted to enjoy the use of some of the apps that I had become used to having the use of, an one of them (XtraFinder) requires that SIP be disabled. Well, I think it has been disabled (though I am not sure about this). After doing what seemed to be required, I opened Terminal, and typed in: csrutil status. A screenshot is attached, showing the response from Terminal, and I don't know how to interpret what it says. Can anyone comment helpfully on this?
By the way, XtraFinder is still not working, even though I followed (as I hope, including disabling SIP) all the instructions (I am quite used to installing it on other versions of Mac OS). However, my primary question is: does the response from Terminal indicate that it has been disabled?
With thanks in hopes of an informed answer,
C.H.

Thanks for the link, Bigwaff. For someone as green as me, it's a lot to digest, but I shall study the article, and do my best.

I have a similar question:
In my case, the Mac can run Monterey native.

AFAIK, the first years of SIP on earlier OS versions, there was only a SIP status, enabled or disabled.

I never had a rescue partition, and I used an installer USB stick, booting, Terminal, disable SIP.
Booting back with SSD and SIP was disabled.


When I do this today with Monterey, I have the same problem as the original poster.
Some SIP parts are disabled, others not.

Correct me, but it seems, completely disabling is only possible with the rescue partition.
Or maybe completely not?

As I have none, I like to ask, is there a way, to disable completely the old stile in any way?
Or do I need to install the OS again to get a rescue partition?

You probably have a Recovery partition even though you can't see it in Disk Utility. Hold Command+R (be patient) to boot into Recovery mode. Recovery mode is the only way to disable SIP on the internal boot device.
