I've been playing with BIAB 2024 Audiophile for over a month in my test Sequoia Test Volume. I upgraded to the general release today.

Add, delete, or erase APFS volumes in Disk Utility on Mac

Of course, it will be months till I update my main Volume from Sonoma but so sar, so good. My test Volume is circled.

I'm currently running BIAB 2024 on Sonoma (14.7.6). I'd like to update to Sequoia (15.5) but don't want to break BIAB. At this point, is it safe to upgrade? Thanks.

Sequoia 15.5 is mature enough for you to jump in. I did in April.

Hello, I installed the latest version of Sequoia two days ago (15.5), and I immediately noticed that BIAB was taking longer to execute commands. I have the Audiophile version, and it was giving me messages telling me it couldn't find RTs that were actually labeled NA in old songs. I can't rebuild the RT directories, etc. BIAB crashes and quits. I've tried several times with the same result.
Is there any hope of fixing this without having to go back in time with Time Machine?
Thanks for reading, Phil.

Hi,
FYI, my problem was resolved by deleting some preferences...so no more problem with last sequoia system... ;-)
