Thanks!
PS: maybe there is also a command to verify the download / installer ...
Thanks!
Apparently, according to https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/256599, there's this public list of checksums for App Store versions: https://github.com/drduh/macOS-Security-and-Privacy-Guide/blob/master/InstallESD_Hashes.csv
I have checked my installers to confirm:
$ shasum -a 256 Install\ macOS\ */Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
4409a34604f4443993debccf855b0896e594dc1fa09ebf2d632a7787b0083436 Install macOS Catalina.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
d7b9a007c0479cd38306110dc3ac762662b6a1c1f0273ac4c6570a3b7a4276ab Install macOS High Sierra.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
42f7d4d8c91ab757645c9ccac83f7bc545def71c2991f509c27514ed3619d9b9 Install macOS Mojave.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
Only Catalina's installer matches, maybe the other two installers I have are missing? I don't know how to get the build numbers from the installers on disk to confirm… A recursive grep
on the files (for the build number I do have) returns nothing for me:
$ grep -R 19A583 Install\ macOS\ Catalina.app/
Hi and thanks for this wonderful script!
Installing macOS 10.15 Catalina worked without a hitch for me, but I had this issue with installing 10.14 Mojave, for which I found a solution was to get the installer again (after wasting quite some time waiting for the installation to proceed + trying other ways.)
For reference:
Hope it helps!
