**** WORKING!!! ******. HI EVERYONE! I have a simplified way I figured out today to bypass DEP today with Ventura against a M2 Macbook Air
Need 3 things
Steps I did
On the non-DEP M1/M2 Mac
Now you have a bootable external disk.
On the DEP enabled M1/M2 Mac
Now you jsut copied the clean ventura to the internal drive.
Once the restore is finished.
Remove the External SSD
Boot from the internal disk
You WILL get an error that it cannot find the OS or some other stupid errors like no owner, or some other silly error... don't worry.
Now you boot again using the USB BOOT Ventura disk.
REINSTALL Ventura again on the internal disk - DO NOT DO ANY DISK FORMATTING this time.
Once USB Installer is done, reboot - you will get to the login prompt of the user you created on the initial fresh install. you will have a working Ventura M1/M2 that just bypassed DEP/Business Manager.
Why this works? Because you first lay down the image on internal disk but due to some apple security, it will never boot unless you "fresh install" it. But the good things about fresh installs, Apple doesn't really wipe the system, it just lays whatever that is necessary for the OS. This means it will fix the ownership of the disks, do whatever it does but won't overwrite local accounts etc. so you will not get prompted for DEP enrollment. I don't know the actual internal details but I just know this works.
Enjoy. took me a while to figure this out after trying many things.
I do not need to do any /etc/hosts hacks, csrutil, etc. nothing. It's pretty simple to do but it does require a double install but it's easier than editing files.
You could in theory transfer a fully working Mac to another Mac now but I don't need to do that so I did the clean Ventura Install.
Now I can use this method to clean/wipe any DEP enabled machine and have myself a "pre-built" machine with certain things like chrome etc already installed. I can just boot from the external SSD periodically to get new updates of OS and software and continue to use it on any new Macs I wipe.
