LAbyOne Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 If you are referring to Catalina, that link is the only available as full install.. the problem you'r having not being able to install security updates most probably is the result of a corrupted UID in your recovery volume. its happened to me once and mounting that volume and erasing the corrupted data was the solution.. you will notice that inside it instead of one only directory you'll have 2, normally the corrupted one has much less files inside due to the installation failure, and the most recent dates ofc, all others InstallAssistantAuto.pkg refers to other systems.

sl0wtarget Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 So, I can't seem to figure out how to mount that volume (/Recovery)…asking, err, for a friend! lol Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl0wtarget Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I tried downloading the first mention of the files mentioned by LAbyOne and successfully create an installer but it appears to successfully install but the build number never changes—I'm still on 19H2. I can't blame them but pulling OS installers from the MAS was an a-hole move from my perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sl0wtarget Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Would someone kindly point me to the correct files to download from swscan.apple.com to create a full installer? I can't figure out the correct files to parse. I'm preemptively grateful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sl0wtarget Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Keep getting 'Cannot connect to Mac App Store' after MAS launches I'm signed in to MAS too. Thanks anyway. Edited October 2, 2021 by sl0wtarget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl0wtarget Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Weird, I can mount Recovery via Terminal but it won't load/show on the desktop where I'd get a better idea of what I might be able to safely delete (as suggested by LAbyOne). Disabling csrutil via Recovery doesn't stick although it seems successful while in Recovery (after rebooting csrutil shows as disabled via Terminal). Of course sudo mount -uw / doesn't work.

Don't hesitate to create your own ones if you wish but please stop posting about beta versions in [release] threads. It turns the threads into a mess and causes much confusion (cf. Big Sur 11.6 thread). Thank you. You are right not finding a thread for the beta versions I posted them, I had to create a new one or simply whoever has to move it, however I deleted everything for the avoidance of doubt ... sorry again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
