I've run monterey on this laptop before without issue except for painfully slow ssd boot times since apparently it hates my ssd, but now its just not working. I had Big Sur running on this and decided to try monterey again since im using a different hard drive, so i changed my smbios and ran the update and everything was working as intented, until monterey actually installed. Setup process was fine until I tried to login, where the system then rebooted. It kept doing that until eventually it would reboot during boot and not even let me into a gui. I tried updating OpenCore and setting everything to debug/verbose, but im still rebooting right after the apple logo shows up after the verbose parts. Is there anything specifically I need to do to get this update working?
Im on a 4th gen i5 with an HD 4400 igpu
I never wiped the previous drive so that i could just revert the whole thing if it didnt work since the current one is just a clone of that drive, so im not really screwed or anything, but bluebubbles has some new functionality only availible on monterey and i would like to try it
EDIT: Fixed by removing my WLAN/Bluetooth kexts. It's not like that ever worked in the first place and this thing is a server running off ethernet anyways, so not too big a loss
