MacBookPro11,3 booting note
MacBookPro11,3 may need to boot Monterey into safe mode if acceleration patches are not installed yet. Safe Mode can be entered by holding Shift + Enter when selecting macOS in the OCLP boot picker.
Missing acceleration can cause black screens or very poor performance on affected systems.
Wireless and Bluetooth notes
The Monterey docs include historical wireless and Bluetooth support drops that were resolved in later OCLP versions. Still, old Broadcom and Atheros hardware can require patches or hardware upgrades depending on model and target macOS.
