If that is the case you know how much easier updating was, a LOT more convenient than macOS is now.Finder 5.3 System 3.2?

Now you can see why they are a bunch of liars and cheaters (VirusTotal and others).VirusTotal flagged 0.2.5 opencore-patcher file, https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/9a9a0048596ebac25d09eaa648669bc3492236115f95d28fe9d0e0cc97604c8e
Also OCLP-CLI,
Any truth to the above? I hate to believe we're all infested with malware...
There is no ffing malware in it, it is open to anybody, you can check yourself.
Why are some just so scared, I have been on OS X/macOS since the very first b (10.0b) and had none of that, and I have been on sites notorious for malware.
Yes, I assume a clean and not patched B6 installation will be a good start.
From there you can upgrade to B8 and apply the new Kepler post install patches.
12.0 beta 8 installed on an MBP5,2. Working well.
Installed over a beta 6 (which was a clean install) using oclp 0.3.0n. After some manual reboots arrived at the login screen.
Applied the system volume patches from jackluke's BaseSystemfix for Monterey (could have used oclp as well, but more used to this method). Acceleration, Ethernet, Wifi, internal audio, internal camera, night shift, sleep/wake all working.
With this installation, like already with b6 done the same way, I can select reduced transparency and keep the menu bar intact, and can thus enjoy accelerated graphics with no glitches. In Big Sur as reported earlier, reduced transparency hurts the left (applications) part of the menu bar and hence is not usable.
Did not check for the various non-metal deficiencies like e.g. in Photos yet.
Safari 15.1 (as 15.0) seems to become unresponsive after a while on my system.
Many thanks to the oclp team and jackluke.
PS: was using the full b8 installer obtained via gibmacos.

Of all the Monterey Betas - B8 installed the smoothest. Staying relevent and off the wayback machine makes a comment more useful to others less tenured.?
No, it used to be the case at a much later time when Snow Leopard was the hit of the day. That was 2011. Lion brought additional complexity and redundancy and it's been snowballing since.• Finder 5.3, System 3.2
The B8 is running well on my iMac12,2 except 2 persistent crash report:

I did not enable the SIP and both have the same crash thread.
Any idea?
update1: the same crashes happen on my iMac10,1 as well: Another very consistent error.
update2: after running for around 5-6 hours, the "Security & Privacy" preference settings has also started crashing (multiple times), which is consistent with my iMac10,1 running OCLP_Catalina.

Issues - 1 freeze on last reboot
P.S - don't work sleep mode, bug of OCLP 0.3.0NB

Safari freezes consistently after a while on my iMac12,2 running beta 8. There is no crash report on this issue. It can be revived temporarily by quitting and opening Safari again.
update1: the same issue occurs on my iMac10,1 as well, another consistent error.
update2: It seems the freeze issue happens on Safari 15.1. After changing to 15.0 (in General), it is more stable now. So far it has not frozen up, and feels more fluent.

Same here on an MBP5,2. With Safari 15.1 on beta 8 as well as with 15.0 on beta 6.
just like to report back that 15.0 also freezes up, albeit less severe (reopen previous tabs without going through the history menu). And feels more snappy than 15.1.
Staying relevant...huh, you said "smoothest update, yet.", guess what, by NO means, I explained why, Updating is a mess nowadays, it was sooooo much better back then....period.Of all the Monterey Betas - B8 installed the smoothest. Staying relevent and off the wayback machine makes a comment more useful to others less tenured.?
No worries though, we're all into this same "mess".
Crashes galore, these are the worst beta's ever, I know what I get into....betas so I know bugs are inside, it's just a lot more than other versions before Monterey.
For instance, Dock still crashes multiple times a day as it already does since the first beta.
Nope, not an OCLP (0.3.0) issue, it happens with all Monterey beta's on my Mac Mini.
Not only that, it's a fairly known problem for Apple to do right, has been for a long..LONG time.

It's happen on 11.6 too, on older 0.3.0 all worked fine, later i try to revert to 0.2.5 with SurPlus fix and vmm flags.
We have the same machine but mine has Nvidia Quadro K3100M GPU. Updated to Monterey Beta 8 but i did not encounter the issues that you have. If your signature is right, then you are using the stock non-metal GPU which might be the cause of your problem.
Dock crashes, sleep issues, problems updating, reading comprehension seem to be local issues. Not seen here. ??
OCLP_030n ran fine until 26 Sept., then the 'sudo purge' bug arrived. Reverted to OCLP_025 release version to repair. Beta 8 nice, given hardware limits. ?
iMac 27 Late 2013 with Monterey Beta 6 installed with Ben's Mini Patcher :
-Reinstalled Beta 6 with OCLP 0.3.0 without losing data with USB installer
-Build OCLP in the same SSD where Beta 6 is installed.
-Updated to Beta 8 with OTA but restarted to black screen
-Force restart again and with OCLP ran the Volume Patch System
-Buid OCLP again disabling SIP and Hide OpenCore Picker
-Restart and everything is working with Beta 8
Thanks @Ausdauersportler
Now, from OCLP 0.2.5, every time I install an OCLP (0.3.0 Night Build), the Mac asks me to Login to iCloud; so, Time Machine asks me if I want to associate the previous Backups "to this new Mac".
Can't this be avoided? Is the function introduced by OCLP with an alphanumeric string regarding the Firmware really essential? Bye and thanks

Have such issues here also, already filed a ticket in Github. Just answered/closed this minute now.
Lets see if changed SMBIOS info was the culprit.
In addition to iCloud and TM we had huge trouble with commercial licence keys not working any more with 0.3.0 (such as Parallels Desktop).
Last reply, my understanding of English is near to perfect, you might check yours.
Btw, why even going there, I wasn't wrong at all, I leave it at that.

Guys. Try to understand each other, help, solve problems and answer questions.
