The install failed #41

Closed antonio-leonardo closed 4 years ago

antonio-leonardo commented 4 years ago

Hi I'm try to run this script and at the end prompt this message bellow

installer: The install failed. (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. The package is attempting to install content to the system volume.)

May you have a solution of this error? Tks, regards!

It's blocked by the patched script somewhere from TMPDIR. Browse to the Downloads folder, and issue the following command to redirect the TMPDIR:

 cd ~/Downloads
 TMPDIR=`pwd` bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Benjamin-Dobell/nvidia-update/master/nvidia-update.sh)

Hi @Benjamin-Dobell ,

I understood the problem: My macOS scenario was Mojave/Catalina versions installed by DosDude1 Software; this installs Mojave/Catalina on Mac Hardware not supported by Apple for Mojave/Catalina; then, I install HighSierra version on my Mac and execute your script and it works.

Sorry to not detailed my question and thanks for script contribute.

Hello,

Could you please share the steps you followed. Thanks

Sure! I'll use some article references to more detail the steps:

1-I make a usb-flash macOS High Sierra bootable drive, following Apple Support 2-I start my MacBook 2009 from this prepared Usb Bootable Drive, choiced by "Opt"+"Command"; 3-And starts a clean install, with similar step like this article How to clean install macOS Catalina and older versions; 4-macOS High Sierra is compatible with my MacBook 2009 hardware; then, after 1,2,3 steps, I execute @Benjamin-Dobell 's script instructions and it was successful to install my NVIDIA driver update;

If your case is similar with mine, consider to analyze the last compatible version of macOS with your Mac hardware.
