Oh, great! I’m working in Keynote & my Mac just shuts down. I frantically check if it ran out of juice (was the plug not on?) Nope, it starts back up. Now I’m stuck in an endless loop of “The macOS installation cannot be completed” FML. Not like I have a talk to give tomorrow.
Crap! Don’t tell me that! :) Would basically kill tomorrow’s talk. Did you find out what caused it?

No was also just working on my mac, but the same day I saw some other ppl on twitter having the exact same thing happening to them
-
Just managed to recover from it by running “first aid” in the disk tool (https://twitter.com/aral/status/985898624096849920 …) Very shoddy work on behalf of the updater. Fingers crossed it doesn’t flake out before/during my talk.

Fwiw I had the same happen to me but the installer file was corrupt. Force booting from primary OS (instead of installer partition) fixed the bootloop
-
Hmm, maybe that’s what fixed it. I did Option-start and pick the HD.
-
Damnit :D oh well ... as long as it doesnt happen again I’m okay with this one-time hickup in my 12 years of Apple usage

Just a reinstall fixed it though (so no clean install), just boot with the recovery drive. Took 45min approx.
