[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1875951, member: 46727"] Recovering Big Sur is more difficult when employing the same recovery process that was used on previous versions of macOS. The reason is that Big Sur implements a measure of security that in effect encrypts the system drive. It does appear though that you erased the drive prior to recovery and restoring with Time Machine. I'm not sure if that was necessary. You might have to do a clean install of Big Sur 11.2.1 first and then try restoring with Time Machine. [/QUOTE]
