macOS Monterey installer stops responding

[thecatranch]

Hi, running on MacBook Pro 2017, I accept the terms and put in my password and then just get the spinning wheel. The installer shows it has stopped responding so I have to quit it after a couple hours... I have tried safe mode startup, disabled firewall and redownloaded the installer a few times.
anyone else having update problems?

Same problem using MBP16 2019. Installer stopped. MBP bricked, nothing worked, apple certified reseller not providing service to replace bridgeOs. Totally mad. Should have skipped early upgrade. Had latest BigSure working before.

Oh dear, its bricked it? Ok time for me to update my backup before I proceed...
