M1 mini bricked w code NSPOSIXErrorDomain - 0x1c (28)

Hi


Got my macmini m1, 8mb/256Mb worked nice a day then it started crashing more and more and dotts on the screen.


I thought i should install a new bigsur 11.01, cleared the ssd .. ( there it statrted to flake ... showning 512 GB !!! )


A big "!" shows on the screen.


Then I went with Apple support Apple Configurator 2, and followed apples steps, and get error "No space" NSPOSIXErrorDomain - 0x1c (28)


Is it the ssd that broke, and cant store Apple Configurator firmware stuff on the ssd


Pretty lost with this new firmware stuff !


Something like this never happened before !

Use Apple Configurator

You can use Apple Configurator if you have these items:

  • Another Mac with macOS Catalina 10.15.6 or later and the latest Apple Configurator app, available free of charge from the App Store.
  • A USB-C to USB-C cable or USB-A to USB-C cable to connect the computers. The cable must support both power and data. Thunderbolt 3 cables aren’t supported.

Then follow these instructions: Revive or restore the firmware using Apple Configurator.

If you don't have these items, follow the steps in the next section instead.
