App Switcher (including "Welcome to iPhone", "Swipe up to get started" screen) gesture does not work.

For the "Welcome to iPhone" screen, just restart the emulator after like 30 seconds to a minute (to allow the disk changes to flush). For the App Switcher, use Assistive Touch (in Accessibility settings).

The emulator may get stuck near "skipping unencrypted volume" or "SEP accepted IMG4".

Just restart the emulator until it works, for now.

Kernel panic "cannot find IOAESAccelerator".

User error. Likely one of two cases:

  • Disk corrupted or similar. sync command after creating/editing the disks may help.
  • Attempting to boot restore without the restore ramdisk. Specify it with -initrd as mentioned in the guide.

Kernel panic similar to "panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffff009686590): "dart-sep (0xffffffe19b81c000): DART(DART) error: SID 0 TTBR invalid exception on read with DVA 0 (TTBR 0 SEG 0 PTE 0) ERROR_STATUS 0x80000001 TIME 0x45270237 TTE 0xffffffffffffffff AXI_ID 0)""

User error. Bad SEP ROM or SEP Firmware.

Can't mount disk or (re)mount it as read-write.

User error. Outdated macOS version or other APFS driver.
