Bugs found in Apple’s latest operating system, macOS Big Sur, seem to cause serious data loss for some users. The bug is included in “Big Sur 11.2” and affects data such as “Big Sur 11.3”. Mr. Macintosh explains the details in the video.
According to Mr. Macintosh, this bug is due to the macOS Big Sur installer not checking if the “Mac” has the free space needed to perform the upgrade. Problems occur when upgrading with insufficient free space. Even if the problem isn’t too serious, if the user’s Mac is encrypted with FileVault, the data will be inaccessible.
Extensive investigation of bugsMr. MacintoshIn a very informative and detailed video, outlines the problem, shows where the problem occurs, its impact, and effective solutions.
According to Mr. Macintosh, Apple has released an updated installer for “macOS Big Sur 11.2.1” (20D75). The latest installer says it will check for free space.
Mr. Macintosh has confirmed this fix.
macOS Big Sur 11.2.1 (20D75) full installer is now available for download.
I’ve confirmed the new installer now checks for free space properly.
This was a serious problem, and I’m glad users will no longer get caught by this issue. https://t.co/dYSuRjdd4p pic.twitter.com/ILxoKfhORn
