These should work. I haven’t tried them myself, particularly the
second one, so it would be useful to check and make sure
that afterward /etc/paths.TeX contains

/usr/texbin
/Library/TeX/texbin

with a line feed after both items.

I installed on a blank partition, but reports from others suggest that the trick is still
needed. However, there is still a lot of time in the beta period, so my advice would
be to stay tuned.
