- gjsman-1000 5y agoThey said it's no problem - just use a fixed version of the macOS Display Controller firmware of your choice. For example, they might target the macOS 12.1 version of the firmware, maybe upgrade to the macOS 12.4 version a year later... It's not stable but it's easily made stable.

Can we drop in the binary blob at will, or will it break if Apple pushes an update?even if that's the case, dual booting may be impossible then. Unless that firmware is downloaded every boot.
