Is there any chance to release a test EFI compatible with macOS Ventura?

hansyao commented 2 years ago

I would not apply the beta version as it's not stable and let's see the final release for Ventura. Theoretically, it could be possible but might not be good enough for Ventura. as you can see the support device list which the 4th generation Intel CPU Core family not included.

Probably, Monterey would be last version for Dell M4800 (even though Nvidia card not compatible good but works). fortunately, we are now running very smoothly in my customized EFI both for Monterey and Big Sur.

With the older macOS Monterey, Apple was still supporting iMacs as far back as late 2015, the later 2013 Mac Pro, the 2014 Mac mini, and the MacBook Air and Pro from early 2015 and MacBook from early 2016. Effectively it has pulled support for some of these older devices with the new OS.
