I run a Big Sur VM using a passed through nvme drive as my main disk. My EFI sits on a vdisk.

You can clone a live disk using CCC. Even works in Big Sur. I cloned my vdisk to a nvme disk live using CCC...the trial version.

I know CCC works for sure in all version of mac os. You can even use disk utility in recovery in everything but big sur...Restore one disk to another does not seem to work in big sur right now. But CCC is the for sure thing. Add your new big vdisk to your VM template, boot up and run CCC...clone to new disk. Just make sure you copy over your EFI partition just incase. I myself keep EFI on a separate vdisk from my hackintosh vdisk.

I had to clone to a bigger vdisk to get this done. You can use the unRAID GUI to increase the disk but you will just get a bunch of extra unallocated space on the disk. And using Disk utility in to take up the extra space just would now work. It would error out almost every time.

I don't use the app but I do have a Big sur VM with a GPU,usb controllers, keyboard mouse etc passed through and I use just like a full desktop mac.

Is the clover or opencore image updated? Do you atleast see the tianocore screen? If its goes black right after seeing the tianocore screen it could be a efi problem.

I had this issue when I first got my rx 570. I had to stub the card for it to work. If you are on the newer versions of unRAID you can do it using the tools-system devices in the gui. Just check off the gpu and it's sound portion in there and reboot. I got nothing but black screens til I did that. I'm running big sur in a VM as well.

I'm on opencore 0.6.4 and Big Sur 11.1. I'm not at home right now I can uploaded when I get home tommorow. But I had no issues when updating either way...

It's might be in a group with other devices.

Just install CCC in big sur with the nvme drive added to the VM. Run CCC and clone your current disk to the nvme disk. It's that easy. You don't need to be in recovery or anything. Just make sure you have the latest CCC.

Yeah you can't pass that device anymore. It's breaking things.

Ok I pass through a pcie bluetooth/wifi card to my Big sur VM. I know it's not built-in but it has the usb device as well. For me to pass this thing through successfully I have to run the usb cord that is usually connected to a usb header on the motherboard and connect it to a passed through usb port. I use a usb header to usb port extension cord to get it done. Without doing this only the wifi would work on the card and the bluetooth would not work. I tried passing through the usb portion of the card but the bluetooth still would not show up.

I wouldn't add anything for en0 just the 10Gbe devices.

Download ioregexplorer and see if its loaded in there. If you see it then you could add it thru the DeviceProperties/Add section in opencore.

The second one is something i never tried before with a mulitfunction on the 00 bus so it maybe a long shot.

<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x07' slot='0x00' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/> </hostdev> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x07' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </hostdev> Try this first. Since its one card this just both on the same bus with separate functions. We do this GPUs when we want to use the GPU audio. <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/> </hostdev> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' function='0x1'/> </hostdev> This second try will but the device on bus 00 which should make it look like a "internal" device to Mac os but on the 9th slot with different functions.

You can try moving the device to bus 00 in the xml. That usually makes the device look like its internal. Post your xml.

Just Catalina disk should work.

@KuniD You can do this in recovery in catalina using disk utility. Use the restore button on your NVME disk in recovery and just select your current start up drive and it will copy everything over. This does not work in Big Sur due to all sorts of changes, I had to use CCC to do it in Big Sur.

Click the docker on the docker tab and you should see a console button.

Hopefully the docker images get updated to add the dependences directly into it.

Console into the docker and run the command to install the dependences there.

@Lunks did you check out the dependences part here https://support.plex.tv/articles/hdr-to-sdr-tone-mapping/ Looks like for intel transcoding some dependences may need to be added for intel.

I have never been able to use a different topology with Big Sur all the way back to the first betas. Apple changed a lot here...
