Weird updater error - Error forcing NVRAM sync: -536870212 #6

This may not be the right place to put this - but I am trying here first I hope that's ok ...

From the install.log file running the 10.14.4 combo update (and a few others like the 10.14.3 delta and 10.14.4 installer) I am getting this weird error during the post logout install phase. (I've hit Restart at the end of the first phase of the installer, logged out and screen goes black with progress).

The installer does go on to reboot and attempt to do the post boot installation but fails quite quickly and then rolls back to 10.14.2 which is what I am currently on.

I've tried clearing the nvram from command line (nvram -c multiple times). Also via Clover (F11) and then reset the BIOS by loading Optimized Defaults. I tried adding EmuVariableUefi-64 with no change.

536870212 is wrong CSR setting when doing a system update. in normal/ fully activated state i.e. 0x0

anicoll commented 5 years ago

Did you ever fix this?

Have the same issue

jayjlawrence commented 5 years ago

No - I have not gotten past this. I have tried a lot of things. Different values for CSR, clearing the NVRAM, different drivers. I've followed a number of NVRAM check processes. There has not been anything to get past this issue.

Based on what I am seeing - it looks like "Core Storage" is the likely culprit.The NVRAM error is likely because it can't write to a temporary encrypted volume that the upgrade is creating. And that issue stems likely from installer wanting Core Storage but not actually getting it.

Getting warmer!

anicoll commented 5 years ago

Thanks for the update. If you ever do figure it out please let me know! :)

jayjlawrence commented 5 years ago

How did you format your system drive? Non-encrypted APFS?

anicoll commented 5 years ago

Yip.

jayjlawrence commented 5 years ago

@anicoll the likely cause is that your system has been compromised by some sort of malware. If you haven't been affected yet - image your drives now. Then go to https://github.com/drduh/macOS-Security-and-Privacy-Guide and good luck!

Hi guys, did you solve? I'm having the same problem.
