Any Problems with Sonoma on Zeon processor iMac Pro's

Hey there, just came upon this post and am wondering the exact same thing. Have you tried this? If so, how did it work out? I'm concerned about stability. Currently on Monterey and its super solid.

thanks!

Well, not is all that well although it appears to not be a problem with Sonoma. I went ahead and upgraded to Sonoma in the hope that it would stop kernel panics that had been happening. I have installed both of the updates and am now running 14.1.2. It made a slight improvement but I was still plagued by crashes, all of which I sent in to Apple. Observing that the crashes mostly happened when I was in Safari, I switched over to Firefox as my default browser which seemed to improve things considerably. However, when I sat down at the computer this morning, it had crashed again. After putting in my password, it crashed again. UGHHHH. I have been with Macs for decades, and it has been a long time since I did a true clean install. If this continues, then I may have to bite the bullet and start again. However, I have lots of software, some of it quite old and don't know if I have the necessary installers to get it back up and running. This probably isn't very helpful but I wanted to replay to your question.

Oh gosh. Thank you for the reply, but I'm really sorry to hear this. If I may: which OS did you upgrade from? Also, are there specific extensions that you are using in the browser? Does it happen with all sites? How about incognito? Does the kernel panic happen only during browser use and not for any other software?

Hi,

I think you could upgrade to Sonoma, 14.1 without the problem for Macs with Xeon processors.

Hi,

Sorry about it, 14.1 is already released.

I think you should not worry about Sonoma on Xeon processor. Several bugs are fixed on 14.1.
