Updated to Sonoma for a week already. Using M1 MacBook Pro with only blocked hosts.

So I know just enough technical stuff to make myself dangerous, but I wanna make sure I understand. So I'm on Ventura 13.0. Are you saying you just went to system settings and updated to Sonoma without doing anything other than keeping the blocked hosts? Or did you have to remove the blocked hosts, update, then do it again. I'm just trying to find a step by step to not brick my machine.

If you want to feel safer, you can turn off your router after the GUI installation of the update (during the GUI installation it requires internet connection, but after that no)

Hi guys.

Tried to install OS from USB but boot from USB is not allowed
Tried on checkm8 but serial number not found plus wasn't able to put laptop into DFU neither
Anyone can help by any chance?

Has anyone managed to install the Sequoia developer beta on a bypassed machine?

I used the method I sent earlier and upgraded just like I normally would have.
