A lot of work is already done in sequoia-development branch.
It seems going fast for hardware that was already patched for Sonoma.
Sounds good ....
As always, great job from this OCLP team !

Indeed. MBP11,1: installed 15.0b2 over b1 from full installer (downloaded via Mr Macintosh), using OCLP sequoia-developement branch from source for EFI.
Security settings as in post #177 needed for running the installer and the installed system.
No (partial) root patching attempted so far.
Amazing at this early stage of Sequoia. Developers have constructed a patcher system with a lot of foresight. Thanks!
EDIT: with the latest sequoia-dev version (using new AMFIPass and Lilu) mentioned settings are no longer necessary.

I'll really be interested now, to see how things turn out. After doing some research on what I want to do with his iMac, and then setting up a dual boot between macOS and Linux, after finding out I could do what i wanted in Linux with gaming, and backward compatibility, from there I was able to to find the same open source tools for macOS and then I was able to change my macOS usage habits correcting the issues I was having with Open core and the software I was using before. So I'm giving the new setup a test with Sonoma / open core 1.5.0. So far, the only remaining issues I have, which are minor, are Sonoma specific (not open core) as in when I looked up the issues they happen on supported machines as well. With that said though, it sounds like Sequoia is going to be promising.
One of the features of Sequoia I would use, would be Apple Pay in third party browsers. I am curious, and it may be too early to really know yet, but would this be something that would work on an intel mac, or are they going to to make it M series only for the bio-metrics support?
I installed the Mac OS X 15.0 system on the iMac 27 mid 2011 computer successfully via OCLP 1.6.0.
The Wi-Fi module does not work. A patch is needed.
The Bluetooth module works immediately. The mouse is fully functional.
The WX7100 MXM graphics card is partially operational. The brightness control is working. The accelerator is not working. A patch is needed.
The sound immediately works fully.

Running macOS Sequoia b2 on a fully supported intel MacMini 8,1 without the Apple Silicon features is equivalent to a Sonoma Mac and likely what we can expect from OCLP at best. Not a command but a real-time observation. 🤷♂️

Well, besides getting longer (OS) support for app-updates and security fixes for another couple of years, this is what we can expect feature-wise if OCLP does miracles again:

MBP11,1, 15.0b2 on external SSD, OCLP 1.6.0n sequoia-development branch:
An attempt on root patching gave minimal results (wifi working) but worked formally; can boot in safe mode.
Many problems which weren't there before my amateur patching, not surprisingly.
The developers' recommendation NOT to install Sequoia holds.
The formal working required a change to the code and some changes to the data. If anything, the attempt showed again that OCLP is so well made that even a naive person can understand enough of it from source.

Perfect topic for this thread.Fully supported, as stated.
I'm also running Sequoia b2 on a MacMini8,1 (hack emulated) and agree that Sequoia b2 is essentially Sonoma for Intel. In Sequoia, I do like that my auto-hidden dock and app menus appear on each display in my multi-display configurations.

Good job. Congratulations!
A1707 2017.
T1 and Wi-Fi work.
The HD630 does not work correctly; the screen brightness cannot be adjusted.
But this problem also exists in the A1990 with UHD630, which should work officially.
Trackpad doesn't work. But it doesn’t work for the A1990 either.

MBP11,1: with the new patcher support package (1.6.1 now) in OCLP sequoia-development branch, 15.0b2 runs well enough to use it for writing this post.
WIFI working.
Done only few manual changes to get the post-install patches through (spoiler).
Thanks developers!
cd /var/folders/6t/_0jy_6vn2lz0pwwgfsz_jy300000gs/T/tmph0s5cv3i/payloads/Universal-Binaries (or similar)
cp -R 12.5-3802-23 12.5-3802-24
cp -R 13.2.1-23 13.2.1-24
above is not good enough for graphics acceleration... just to let the patcher proceed.
in sys_patch_helpers.py before line 266 insert something for the sequoia case, seems good enough:
...
elif self.constants.detected_os == os_data.os_data.sequoia:
return
LIBRARY_DIR =...
need to boot in safe mode so far.

Edit: newly patched drivers I guess will gradually be added to new PatcherSupportPackage versions, as is already the case for AMDRadeonX5000MTLDriver.bundle. Looking forward to that, it will be a lot of work to the developers like every year. Thanks developers!
