Hi,

I have macOS 10.13.4 (17E199) installed, downloaded the 10.13.6 combo updater and tried to install the update. But the installer does not let me choose my system drive: the drive doesn't fit the requirements.

What is wrong here and how can I fix this?

My smbios is:
Modellname: iMac
Modell-Identifizierung: iMac14,2
Prozessortyp: Intel Core i7
Prozessorgeschwindigkeit: 3,4 GHz
Anzahl der Prozessoren: 1
Gesamtanzahl der Kerne: 4
L2-Cache (pro Kern): 256 KB
L3-Cache: 8 MB
Speicher: 8 GB
Boot-ROM-Version: IM142.0125.B00
SMC-Version (System): 2.15f7

The system drive is formatted in HFS+.

Thanks for help!

try updating from system update?
 
Hm, ok? Usually I used the combo updater before. Weird. Will try tomorrow.

EDIT: Oh! I think I didnot download the combo updater, but instead the normal one :clap:
 
Yes, I accidentily downloaded the non-combo-updater, since it also was 1,2GB of size! Everything worked nicely. Thanks for your ideas.
