macOS 11 Big Sur on Unsupported Macs Thread

[OKonnel]

Use CMD + R at startup, pressing the keys simultaneously before and during the gong's sound. Keep them pressed until the Apple logo appears.
Important! You must have Catalina installed with the latest Dosdude1 patch (version 1.44) which enables both options: CMD+R or the Shift key to enter Safe Mode. Older versions of the Dosdude1 patch do not allow you to use boot options.
I have a MacBook 5.1 and a MBP from late 2010 and everything works with Catalina 10.5.7 latest build and Dosdude1 patch version 1.44

Yes Bro you are correct i am using catalina patches by dosdude.
Bro how to enter into RECOVERY MODE WITH CATALINA,IF I AM NOT WRONG CMD+R.IF THESE ARE THE KEY THEN ITS TAKE ME TO MAC OS UTILITIES NOT TO RECOVERY.
Tell me the way how to Enter Recovery mode.
Thank you

You put USB Installer BS or Catalina > Restart > Option > choose Installer BS or Catalina > Menu > Terminal

It's not correct! If you want to use the "csrutil disable" or "csrutil enable" command, the command works only from the CMD+R boot option on the SAME SYSTEM DISK.
The command, otherwise, works but has no effect if you start the Utilities using a USB installation key or another external System disk or by booting from a partition with another System on the same Mac.

You call it Mac OS Utilities, but maybe it's Recovery Mode.

No it is not Recovery mode,bcoz when i waa type that command in terminal csrutil
Inreturn it said this command works Recovery os.

No it is not Recovery mode

Close all apps, paste this in Terminal and press "Enter" to reboot directly into Recovery Mode:
sudo nvram 'recovery-boot-mode=unused' && reboot recovery

 

[Mr-nice-guy]

Sounds like you were already in the recovery environment when you could select Utilities

But both mac os are patched and i was try before Terminal not Accept the csrutil disable command.
Due to patched mac os.

You should use the actual command "sudo nvram 'recovery-boot-mode=unused' && reboot recovery" without the "icode" tags used to highlight it in my post. That is just forum formatting.

 

[Pascal Baillargeau]

You have to enter:

sudo nvram 'recovery-boot-mode=unused' && reboot recovery

not

(icode) sudo nvram 'recovery-boot-mode=unused' && reboot recovery (/icode)

[Mr-nice-guy]

I told you, that you need to create elcapitan's install usb stick (or HDD or SDD partition) and do SIP-disable under recovery, booted from this stick (Hdd or SSD partition).

EVEN I TRY TO INSTALL EL CAPITAN IN MAC MINI 2009 INSTALLATION BAR FULL BUT AT LESS A MINITUES AFTER FEWS MINTUES MESSAGE APPEAR THIS COPU OF OS IS NOT VERIFIED MAY BE DURING DOWNLOAD TEMEPERED.

Yes i have installed with 1.4.4

 

[Mr-nice-guy]

To disable SIP, you open Terminal in Recovery mode, type: csrutil disable, then reboot. Done!
Did you use Catalina patches by dosdude for Big Sur Beta?

thanks for the videos. how about clean install using patched sur?

 

[Dayo]

Don't try both. Only one is correct and often people make mistakes when trying wrong things by mistkenly copying to what they think is the correct trial.

So, only try the correct one and post the error that you get.

Still no news about the macOS Big Sur 11.1 Release Candidate (20C69) full installer package? Nobody found it yet?
