I'm trying to build the 17C2120 installer per section D.2 of the guide, and I noticed what might be a bug in step D.2)2. There's fourteen curl download commands listed. The fifth one and the last one use the same URL:
Code:
curl https://swdist.apple.com/content/downloads/49/07/091-33271/a0p216ukywyxia77i36ujq0bq91ghcyyaf/InstallAssistantAuto.pkm -o InstallAssistantAuto.pkm
I double-checked the catalog plist that you linked and it looks like one of the files perhaps should be InstallAssistantAuto.smd (i.e. the name repeats, but the extension is different).
Even after correcting for that, though, I can't get the installer built. This step:
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/installer -pkg installer.pkg -target /Volumes/MySystemDisk/
...always results in a genuinely cryptic error: "installer: Error - ERROR_B14B14D9B7". Anyone have any clues as to what might be the cause of this? I've even parsed through the whole catalog plist for ALL the files for a0p216ukywyxia77i36ujq0bq91ghcyyaf (there are 49) and tried building the installer with all of them, but no joy. And just so no one has to repeat my pain, here's curl commands for all 49:
