Namely: * `AppleSerialShim` must be disabled not just for Monterey but any older macOS version; emphasize that point, * SIP must be disabled; while the user is there, you might as well have them run through the startup security downgrade steps while they are there, * the list of "except" ports on https://support.apple.com/en-us/111336 seems to be a hint to which are the DFU ports, add the link for reference in case this is true, * `cu` on macOS doesn't work well for the debug console port; this slightly adjusted `picocom` invocation found from the IRC archives works much better. * you likely need to install a corresponding KDK; you may need to upgrade macOS to do that. The commit also makes some other light wording tweaks. This doc could be further improved still, but it's a start. Signed-off-by: 3405691582 <[email protected]>
