MacOS Monterey Boot Stuck on MacBook Pro 2015
I have installed macOS Monterey on my MacBook Pro 2015 using OCLP. The system works fine except the boot gets stuck one or two times.
Symptoms
The MacBook Pro 2015 gets stuck at the boot screen, and it doesn't progress further. The Apple logo keeps spinning indefinitely.
Possible Solutions
Safe Mode
Press and hold the Shift key during startup to enter Safe Mode. If the system boots up successfully in Safe Mode, it's likely that a third-party app is causing the issue. Try disabling or uninstalling any recently installed apps to see if it resolves the problem.
Recovery Mode
Restart your Mac and hold down Command + R keys during startup to enter Recovery Mode. You can then perform a Disk Utility First Aid check to fix any issues with the disk. If that doesn't work, you can try reinstalling macOS Monterey.
Reinstall macOS Monterey
If the problem persists, consider reinstalling macOS Monterey. Back up your data before proceeding. To reinstall macOS Monterey, restart your Mac and hold down Command + R keys during startup to enter Recovery Mode. Select "Reinstall macOS" and follow the on-screen instructions.
