By the way, this occurs on a fairly clean install of macOS Big Sur (running just a few days).
Comment 2 Jasem Mutlaq 2020-11-28 15:05:13 UTC
Thanks, we'll check it out. If you close the startup wizard (not by clicking done by but by clicking X), all is good?
Comment 3 MountainAirCA 2020-12-03 21:14:25 UTC
Sorry Jasem, I just noticed your comment.  Yes, I eventually tried the close button vs the Done button and it worked.  It keeps prompting me to do setup each time I launch KStars, but I think I can turn that off in the config.

I will hopefully test this on RPi4 later today.
Comment 4 MountainAirCA 2020-12-17 04:54:35 UTC
Note:  This did not happen on a RPi4.  It also did not happen on a Mac mini that I built... but the confusing thing is that both the Mac mini and MacBook Pro were rebuilt with the same OS at the same time.  I'm not sure what happened with the MacBook Pro install.  It still crashes to this day.
Comment 5 Jasem Mutlaq 2020-12-17 13:10:26 UTC
The issue is found and fixed for KStars 3.5.1
