Hi,
I would like to install the Big Sur beta, as I have read a lot good things about it. I installed the Beta Access Utility, but now the Catalina Beta is shown in the list, but not Big Sur. It saus 10.16, but the image and the link say Catalina. How do I change that or do I need to install the latest Catalina beta, before I can upgrade to Big Sur?

To install the Big Sur beta you’ll need to have the developer profile. Once you have installed that, I believe you should be able to download and install Big Sur without having to update to the latest Catalina beta.
