I have edited the video down to 2.5 minutes by removing the “boring” parts and speeding up other parts. Video 1 shows the entire process including the download of the 11.78 GB “Install macOS Monterey app”, the entire process took about 7 hours. BetterTouchTool also seems to be affected: App crashes on latest Monterey 12.5 beta 5 - Discussion & Questions - BetterTouchTool Community.

I started with a macOS Big Sur VM, and inside that VM, I downloaded the “Install macOS Monterey app” that was released on the first day of WWDC 2021, and then ran that app to upgrade Big Sur to Monterey.

However, in my experience with brand new macOS beta releases, method #3 has the highest chance of success, so this is what I did.

(See Update figure 1.) This is the first time there has been a macOS VM on an Apple M1 Mac! Of course, Parallels will announce official support for macOS Monterey after its released to the public by Apple. Today, I am happy to report that with the release of Parallels Desktop 17, macOS Monterey also works in a VM both as a host OS and a guest OS on my MacBook Pro with Apple M1 chip. In June 2021, when macOS Monterey was first released I installed the beta in a VM in Parallels Desktop on my iMac with Intel processor and could successfully run it. Your physical computer – in my case a Mac – is not adversely affected. Update 36 (December 15) 12:28 pm (IST): Apple has officially delayed macOS Monterey Universal Control card until Spring 2022. It has been happening since October and there is still no fix. The effects of such issues are limited to the VM. 02:13 pm (IST): Some macOS 12 Monterey users are facing a bug with ProMotion enabled which causes animation lag between workspace switching. If it erases your documents folder, it’s OK. In a VM you are isolated from any serious issues in the OS. By definition, beta releases are unfinished operating systems, and they can contain significant bugs.

One of the first things I do when an OS that I am interested in releases a new beta version is to install it in a virtual machine (VM) in Parallels® Desktop for Mac.
