Great success! Used my old iMac to install a fresh High Sierra install on a USB. Booted from that on my MacBook and we’re away.
I’d literally been tearing my hair out for days trawling the deepest darkest parts of the web. On the plus side I’m now proficient in diskutil via terminal and also navigation.
Everything is backing up right now...
M1 MacBook Pro 16GB lands in the morning too. Ahead of the initial delivery date. I’m not sure I want anything to do with it now tbh.... 😬
Chris, I love you.
