Twml Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I have a HP Elitebook 8460P i5 2520M 2.49ghz 8GB ram laptop running High Sierra 10.13.1. I cant get it to update to 10.13.3 no matter what i try. App store or downloading the updates from apple website either single or combo updates. All fail. Downloading from the app store asks for a reboot to install, starts to install, says ETA then part way through just goes to a black screen no reboot no nothing just powered on doing nothing for hours. After rebooting manually i have a new option in clover MacOS install from hdd. booting it causes the system to endlessly reboot update wont install. however if i boot from the os not the update, system will start in 10.13.1 again. I recorded the verbose output during the install but it happens very fast, (less then 1 second a lot of text) so i recorded in 240fps slo-mo in some bad lighting unfortunately time of day it is, so hope its readable. Any idea why i cant install the 10.13.3 updates? I have tried app store, manual 10.13.1 > 10.13.2, manual 10.13.1 > 10.13.3 combo File is to big to attach here (145mb) so here is a youtube link to my verbose boot i am getting with the update install. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq2owXaUy4o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Do you have all the kexts updated? For you stop the boot, and see what happens, press the Space button and go to Don't reboot on panic (debug=0x100). Check the box, and go to Boot macOS with selected options.

Twml Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 10.13.1 seems to be running well. im not sure if i need to update any kext or where to even really update, booting works on 10.13.1 so im not sure what i would need to even update. Im fairly new to hackintoshing, here is a pic of the paused panic If it matters my drive is HFS+ Mac OSx Extended journaled formatted (The installer for high sierra did this) Should it be the new APFS? or is that a non-issue here?

Allan Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 APFS is better to Apple hardwares. Keep using HFS+ I recommend you install the HS using the Olarila .iso, it's a vanilla install method and works very well. The version available are on 10.13.2, go to the Forum.

Twml Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 I am currently using 10.13.1 off the mac app store, made bootable with transmac and a efi partition img. i have it fully working just cant update for some reason. So if i cant fix the app store update i will just keep using 10.13.1 until it may be possible for someone to know a fix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 That's a good option. But if you wanna do a test, try the Olarila method, once installed you'll are already on 10.13.2, after the post-install, just update it to 10.13.3 PS: Use a separate HDD/SSD to do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i did get my 10.13.1 to update to 10.13.3 from the app store. i had to DOWNDATE the Lilu.kext in my EFI partition for it to not kernel panic i was on 1.2.2 i had to downdate to 1.2.1. all working now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
