Apple changed how the boot picker and Startup Disk apps detect valid OS boot volumes, causing Asahi Linux partitions to become invisible in macOS 27. The data is not lost, but affected users must use macOS 26 to restore access. The Asahi installer has been patched to block installation under macOS 27 until the issue is resolved. A bug report has been filed with Apple. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
