Summary
Apple's macOS 27 beta has broken Linux booting on Apple Silicon Macs. The Asahi Linux team reports that Apple changed how the boot picker and Startup Disk detect valid OS boot volumes, making the Asahi partition invisible. Users are advised not to upgrade to the beta until a fix is released, though the partition data remains intact.
