Same, or similar behaviors with the 2020 Intel MBP. I ended up having to format the drive as an exFAT drive and then reformat again as APFS to get it to reinstall it was a real pain in the ass.
- giuliomagnifico 6y agoBut at least with an intel Mac you can boot in target mode using cmd - t and then clone/mount/erase/whatever the disk from another Mac! Instead with ARM you can’t mount the disk as an external drive. That’s why this mess started!
- galad87 6y agoA M1 Mac can be restored from Apple Configurator, the same as any other iPhone or iPad.
- giuliomagnifico 6y agoYes but to me looks a bit overkill use another Mac to restore a Mac with a restore partition. It was my last way, fortunately I solved without use it.
