How exactly does it brick your device? I’ve been erasing my SSD and been rebooting it with no problem so far
Really?! When I was attempting to reinstall, I kept getting the same error message (attached). Basic Apple Support couldn’t help, and even seniors were stumped. Bootable installers failed, I had nothing except configurator.
Uh oh. I haven’t gotten that far yet lol. Imma be pissed if this happens to me lol
Yeah, the reinstall part is the problem. I hope you have a second Mac, or someone who can lend you one for a few hours! It's not an easy task, this revival. There's a thread here somewhere (Will find if you want) that explains how to do it. Ignore Apple Support's instructions, they're wrong (they're aware, will fix soon I hope).
Hmm, mine just finished passed that point (of that photo you shared), now it just rebooted. Hopefully no additional errors will occur...
Yeah I think my Mac is restoring with no issues. It’s already doing the progress. Hopefully I don’t jinx myself lol
This worked well i gather?
After installing macOS again I got 11.0.1, hoping that will fix my compatibility issues, I erased my Mac again; but now I’m getting the same error as you. This is frustrating!!!!
Tell me about it! Like I said, you can fix it with another mac if you have one, but if you don't, I'm not sure that there's much you can do until Apple does something. As I said before, I think it's an issue with the installer files the Mac is trying to download for Big Sur when you do the reinstall, so hopefully they can fix it without causing you too much grief. If it's a more significant problem, you may need to visit the Genius Bar (or a helpful friend) to sort it out. If you need further help with it, let me know, as I've been through the sheer agony of trying to fix this issue!
