major issue with Big Sur install

2020-11-21 Thread Mike Arrigo
I went ahead and created a Big Sur install on a USB flash drive. After booting 
from it, I discovered a major issue with Voiceover. When installing a new major 
operating system, I prefer to erase my drive and install from scratch. Wehn 
trying to access the list of drives in disk utility, voiceover crashes making 
this task impossible at this point. Wondering if anyone else can reproduce 
this. I know there have been several other issues with using Voiceover in Big 
Sur recovery as well.

contacted apple accessibility about this?  Thanks.

Re: major issue with Big Sur install

2020-11-21 Thread maurice Mines
Hi, I have some questions, one how did you create the USB install? There are 
several machines here that need the upgrade. Two I have not found the issues 
that people are talking about on my machine. I'm wondering if it really comes 
down to how current in the hardware? This is a 2020 MacBook Pro. So I'm 
wondering if that really is the defining issue with installing, And or 
upgrading to Mac OS Big Sur.

Sincerely Maurice Mines.

Re: major issue with Big Sur install

2020-11-21 Thread Mike Arrigo
Not yet, it happened on my macbook air, I want to test it on one of my mac 
minis, you could probably test it by booting your mac in to recovery, I think 
that's the same thing that is used when creating an install on an external 
drive.

Re: major issue with Big Sur install

2020-11-21 Thread Mike Arrigo
I tried it on my mac mini and the same thing happens, attempting to access the 
list of drives in disk utility will cause voiceover to totally crash. I realize 
that a new release of an operating system may have some bugs but I would 
consider this a major bug, at this point, doing a clean install of Big Sur is 
not possible. I'm not sure if anyone from the applevis site is on this list but 
if so, you may want to add this to the Big Sur blog article.
