How to Upgrade to Sonoma Without Risking Activating DEP/MP?
There is some conflicting information here (and on YT), and I am not a pro user... Could someone kindly explain or point me to the current recommended process to upgrade from Ventura to Sonoma without risking my Mac being enrolled into DEP/MDM?
Originally, when I acquired this Mac, DEP/MDM was circumvented by blocking IPs on my router, installing from USB (clean install), and then editing hosts files. However, now I would like to upgrade a running system and Sonoma seems to have additional tricks to enroll us. Hope someone could help me run the upgrade to Sonoma without risking DEP/MDM (this is why I have not upgraded until now, but I have to do it now as a tool I use needs Sonoma now).
P.S. This means I am not DEP/MDM enrolled, correct?
