I have a 2011 Mac Mini running Opencore legacy (Big Sur)
Ive created a time machine backup however when i try to test recovery it boots into a OSX Lion recovery screen and then cant find my newer OS backups to restore from (just sits on Searching for Time machine backups). I can only presume the Time machine is too new for the old OS to see?
How could i update the recovery partition to a newer one, even something more modern like sierra?
Bootloader is using the opencore, maybe it has another recovery method
