I was reinstalling macOS. Cannot recall whether it was from a USB drive or from softwareupdate. But it appears it was using color samples from the display to determine the authenticity of the boot image. The check was failing.It would help if you told us what you were trying to do when this msg appeared...
Ultimately, I took it into Apple. They were unable to flash the firmware. It woudnt recognize their configuration Mac, so they took it for about three days, replaced the logic board, replaced the SSD, and replaced the display.
I’m trying to sort out what exactly was going on. Apple will not respond with what that error refers to. I’m hoping one of you might know.
As I said, I was having an issue reinstalling macOS. Just as Apple was having an issue flashing the firmware with their Configuration Mac. I no longer had issues after Apple replaced the logic board, SSD, and display.Which version of macOS were you trying to install?
Despite that "error" (which may not be an error, per se, but simply a report, knowing that the installer covers a range of different Mac models, and a range of install conditions), anyway, despite that "report" are you actually having a problem with the macOS reinstall?
Also as I said, I have photos of the errors from November and am posting them to crowdsource explanations for what likely occurred.You posted this yesterday in June.
