It seems like you're having trouble installing Sonoma on your MacBook Pro Mid 2012 using the legacy patcher. A black screen followed by the Apple logo and then returning to the boot screen could indicate a display or graphics driver issue.
Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Reset NVRAM/PRAM: Restart your MacBook and hold down Command + Option + P + R keys simultaneously until you hear the startup sound twice. This can sometimes resolve display-related issues.2. Safe Mode: Boot your MacBook into Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key immediately after turning it on. This will disable third-party extensions and only load essential system files. If your MacBook successfully boots into Safe Mode, it indicates that a third-party driver or extension may be causing the issue.3. Check compatibility: Ensure that the version of Sonoma and the legacy patcher you're using are compatible with your MacBook model. Double-check the documentation or forums specific to Sonoma installation on your MacBook Pro Mid 2012 to ensure compatibility.4. Perform a clean installation: If all else fails, consider performing a clean installation of Sonoma. This involves erasing your current macOS installation and starting fresh. Make sure to back up your important data before proceeding.
