[QUOTE="krs, post: 1812995, member: 67742"] I tried the link you posted - that just takes me back to the app store and I end up with the same problem. two other things I came across when I researched this issue on the net. In one place they claim that two step installation, first 22Mb, then the whole installer, is done because a firmware update is required (maybe only on some Mac) - no ideas if that is actually true. Another place said to actually start the installation with the 22MB installer and then stop either before the target volume is selected or just after - there are different opinions here. I have not tried anything, I just made a backup of El Capitan, will boot into that and then try the the various options on the backup. [/QUOTE]
