Hi David

Its highly likely that a previous installation hung or didn't exit gracefully and is responsible for this. Have you tried installing after a system reboot?

Yea, we did a reboot, opened in safe mode, almost everything

Hey

Can you share the screenshot of the Error Dialog. Also the install logs at "/var/log/install.log".

To share the logs here, follow the steps as mentioned here - How to share a document

Meanwhile on your terminal type this -> sudo rm /private/var/db/mds/system/mds.install.lock and hit return; Then reboot and see if this helps

Thanks
