@gandolf243 Can you check what causes this issue and fix?
@albert-mueller ·
Temporary workaround is to run the patcher as root like this:
sudo /path/to/patcher (replace /path/to/patcher with the patcher path)

Hi I have ever try but I have the same issue.
The root patch doesn't applied.

@grebarne hey! I discovered that issue awhile ago. But I had too much going on so it fell to the back of my mind. I will start working on it!
By the way, that
sudo /Library/Application\ Support/albert-mueller/OpenCore-Patcher-T2/OpenCore-Patcher-T2.app/Contents/MacOS/OpenCore-Patcher-T2doesn't work. But here is how to patch from the command line:@gandolf243 ·
@grebarne, sorry, I completly forgot about this! I am really busy with other issues (code, not life) and I will try to get to this as soon as possible.

Okay, can you try this:
@grebarne ?
It happened something similar on my 2020 MacBook Pro recently, which is natively supported by Tahoe.
