Nope, no idea why I deleted the serial, given that \"a new one\" is as couple of keystrokes away :D Anyway, a surprisingly easy success story getting Sequoia to run well on the TravelMate P643M that I rediscovered in my parts storage. Everything but the audio worked out of the box - AppleALC for some reason doesn't inject the sole layout (3) that should do the trick for the onboard Conexant 20588, so until I try to generate my own, the device's stuck with VoodooHDA. Aside from that, just following the basic Ivy Bridge laptop guide from Doritania resulted in a stable install of Big Sur with everything working as expected that was updated (as a System Update/OTA, btw) first to Sonoma and then to Sequoia using this handy OCLP guide. There are some small hiccups with 15.0 on something as ancient as Ivy Bridge, but the only "serious" ones so far seem to be that RSR's should be avoided, while any point updates will come not as small deltas (ie 2gigs with just the changes) but as full fat (12+ gig) installers, which is hardly a problem so long as you don't install on a truly small partition or drive (in my case a 256gig mSATA in the WWAN slot is more than enough to handle the occasional 15gig OTA) [link] [comments] |
