What's working:
- Wake from Sleep (Sort of. It takes a few seconds)
- Ethernet
- Bluetooth (Weird, since WiFi isn't and they're on the same card.)
- iServices (As far as I can tell, it's all working.)
What's not working:
- Wifi (It's working fine in Catalina with the same EFI) -- I added brcmfx-driver=2 to my boot arguments to no avail. It's strange because Bluetooth seems to be working fine. I assume that my Broadcom BCM4352 is just no longer compatible. Is there something newer that's compatible with my MB?
- On-board audio (Also working fine in Catalina) -- The audio layout is different somehow. In Catalina, the rear and front audio ports were listed as "Line Out". In Big Sur, it's somehow switched to "Internal Speakers". That's not the biggest deal, but it's certainly weird. I've also tried alcid=2 and =11. I'll eventually go through the remaining layouts, but since rebooting takes about 10 minutes, it might take me a while.
- Sidecar (really, I just don't have a current iPad I can use to test it).
- Airdrop
The biggest issue I'm seeing is that booting into Big Sur takes FOREVER!!! Catalina takes 18 seconds while Big Sur takes 4 minutes and 15 seconds. It seems to be getting stuck at:

It boots eventually, but 4+ minutes is a ridiculously long time.
Any ideas?
