Morning,
Am hoping the forum can help point me in the right direction as I'm trying to upgrade from 11.7.5 to 12.7 via OCLP 1.5.0 on a 2010 MP 5,1.
Previously I used OCLP 0.4 to upgrade from 10.5 to 11.7 and everything went as expected after following numerous guides, especially the thread here and Mr Macintosh on YT. However this time round it's just not happening for some reason.
This is the order in which I've attempted the upgrade:
Thanks in advance
McD
Am hoping the forum can help point me in the right direction as I'm trying to upgrade from 11.7.5 to 12.7 via OCLP 1.5.0 on a 2010 MP 5,1.

This is the order in which I've attempted the upgrade:
- DL OCLP 1.5 from github (Have tried using older versions of OCLP as well but with the same result)
- Open and install into Apps folder
- Erase and prepare 128gb USB thumb drive drive using Disk Utility (Mac OSX Extended Journaled, GUID Partition etc)
- Boot OCLP and create Mac OS Installer on USB drive using existing Monterey installer (Already DL'd using OCLP)
- Install OCLP to USB
- EFI Partition created on USB drive (EFI Partition is created and then mounted etc.)
- OCLP asks to reboot whist holding down the option key.
- When I reboot with option key held down the boot up screen is black with two options. Macintosh HD and Install Monterey.
- What I should see is the Boot picker screen showing the USB EFI Partition but it's not shown?
Thanks in advance
McD
