So I wiped my old MBP thinking it would be very straightforward to put High Sierra on there and start fresh. Wow, how wrong was I?!?
HS is no longer supported in Recovery Mode, I'm unable to download from Apple via recovery or from their website. Unable to make a bootable disk as the version I grabbed from Piratebay isn't recognised as legit by the system. I can't even use Time Machine as those backups were restored to the new machine so it won't recognise them. I wasted my entire Sunday trying to get a system on there.
My only remaining option is to pick up a bootable USB stick off eBay. Fucking crazy state of affairs.
New MBP is nice, I like it.
