MBP Big Sur Beta 5 Startup Failure
I installed Big Sur Beta 5 last night. On power up it brings me to login screen, then takes me to the desktop and starts booting up the startup apps. After about a minute to a minute and a half, the fans blast at full power for ~1 second and the device powers down completely. Then it restarts and splashes the kernel panic screen and the process begins again. I’ve tried running disk utility-> first aid (shows many “orphan x found”), restarting the PRAM, restarting SMC, and re installing the beta software but the problem persists. Diagnostics does not show any errors. Restarting in safe mode does not trigger the problem. Would like to hear some possible solutions to try, otherwise I’ll downgrade to Catalina next. Device info: 2018 MBP 15 in touch bar with 6 core i7, 32 gb ram, 500gb storage.
