Sorry Guys this is my first build and it has been going well so far but I ran in to a wall when trying to disable APFS in terminal.
This is my guide:
Disable APFS with Terminal
-bash-3.2# Is -1 /Volumes
-bash: Is: command not found
-bash-3.2#
So that did not work for me so I tried this:
/Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense
This is what happens:
-bash-3.2# /Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense
-bash: /Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense: No such file in directory
-bash-3.2#
My USB drive is named:Install macOS High Sierra
The HD where the final installation is named : Hackingtoch
As this is my first build I apologies for my complete ignorance on this subject. Hope some one will be able to help me out
This is my guide:
Disable APFS with Terminal
- Open Terminal from the Utilities drop down menu at the top.
- Replace “disk_drive_name” in line 2 with whatever your boot drive is named when you use ls -1 /Volumes to get the names. Input the following one line at a time in Terminal pressing enter after each line is typed:
ls -1 /Volumes
cd /Volumes/disk_drive_name
cd "macOS Install Data"
vi minstallconfig.xml
-bash-3.2# Is -1 /Volumes
-bash: Is: command not found
-bash-3.2#
So that did not work for me so I tried this:
/Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense
This is what happens:
-bash-3.2# /Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense
-bash: /Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense: No such file in directory
