I am recommending it, ARM is a totally different architecture and why carry the baggage of your old intel only extensions?

I don't know why the macOS upgrade did this, but it is apparently rejecting the presence of at least some of the old extensions.

I can post instructions on how to manually delete them, it takes some effort, but doable.

But consider a clean install.

at minimum, ZfS is installed in your system, however. That is not something that is for inexperienced users to install. I am surprised you did not remember installing it.

Are you able to do a clean install and not import old data? You may be better off. I don't know what else was imported and on a new architecture, it is better to start off clean.

Also, it appears you migrated data from an intel machine, you are better off not doing so, as macOS migration is brain dead and will also migrate intel-only drivers.

You have some problem extensions loaded/installed.

Did you ever install openzfs on your system? that is what I think the spl.kext is from. It could also be from tuxera NTFS driver, or some other installation that uses it (like MacFuse).

 

Any of this ring a bell?

this means the SoftRAID driver is quarantined. I am going to send some instructions off line to clear this state, then lets try again. You can respond here, however.
