macOS Ventura 13.6 -> Sonoma 14.0 Update Success

macOS Ventura 13.6 -> Sonoma 14.0 Update Success

Successfully updated from Ventura to Sonoma! No issues with the update. Had been dealing with an issue with display going black with backlight on on boot after updating to 13.6, would stay that way until waking from sleep. Wiping the boot drive and installing fresh fixes this issue. When restoring from a time machine backup, if caught in a boot loop, simply reinstalling Ventura/Sonoma without wiping the drive clean fixed the issue for me. Highly recommend making yourself an offline installer USB and a Time Machine partition before updating if you can, saved my ass when I accidentally shut down the laptop after wiping the macOS drive with my recovery partition.
