macOS 14 Sonoma on Unsupported Macs Thread

Status
The first post of this thread is a WikiPost and can be edited by anyone with the appropiate permissions. Your edits will be public.
The next step I'd take is booting in safe mode so that any apps you've got enabled to run on login don't run. But personally I'm having no luck booting in safe mode on my rMBP10,1 at the moment.

And yeah, I was wondering if you had a short in there somewhere. If I were you I'd be pulling the base off of it, doing a cleanup and generally looking around inside. That would be a good time to do regular maintenance like cleaning out the fans, SD card slot, etc. It may not solve the graphics problem but at least you'll have eliminated that possibility, right?

I see in the changelog that new boot-args were added to OCLP 1.2.0

Add new arguments:
  • --cache_os: Cache necessary patcher files for OS to be installed (ex. KDKs)
  • --prepare_for_update: Clean up patcher files for OS to be installed (ex. /Library/Extensions)
Could someone explain if and when I need those?
 
Update 14.2 beta2 went fine on my MBA7,2 with OCLP 1.2 .
No chance with my MM7,1 and 14.2 b2. Also with latest nightly only login loop after post patches applied.

If it works, it works.
 
OCLP doesn't patch right the graphics on MBA9,1 with 14.2 beta2. I tried last release and last nightly. Black screen at the end of last boot. I suppose driver is not signed.

Same here on my iMac 13,2 coming from 14.2 beta 1 to beta 2 using full installer.
Will try loading 14.1.1 from OCLP created USB and stick with that until 14.2 is released.

OCLP 1.2.1 just released. It is a bug fix release for OpenCore Legacy Patcher's Launch Agent failing to load after macOS updates. This update is not critical, however helps streamline the update flow for end users. So if your machine works well and you are on the latest MacOS version already anyway, no need to install...

No, that is NOT an official OCLP release. It is a nightly (beta) version.
If you post incorrect information that can lead to someone with a messed up system.

(likely GitHub is not completely up to date with all links, no Github has a stroke and deleted some versions. wait until it has been fixed, the 1.2.1. is real, though)

v.1.2.1 remains a "Nightly", not a release as yet. davidlv beat me to it. 👏

Can't pass that off as if Github is to blame. For most of us, unlike you with your insider knowledge, that Github site is the official OCLP site, so until it is updated, the official release is 1.2.0. Also the page you posted doesn't have assets, just source code, so it looks like a page being setup but not complete. Minor point indeed. But that original post about 1.2.1 being released didn't have a link to that new version, and neither does your post. I am not the only one who uses OCLP but do not have my old machine setup to build from the source code. Without assets, a link to a binary, people without a source code building environment are not able to get that release from the page you linked to.
In the end, it is not a big deal, we will just wait until the github page is refreshed.
What is important is the dev(s) are amazing programmers, and OCLP is a real gem!
