macOS Mojave 10.14.6 Supplemental Update 2
Hi all,
So now I'm posting this a second time because my Macbook Pro (15 inch, 2018, 2.9 Ghz Intel Core i9, 32GB) had another of its many kernel panics while posting. I have this kernel panic quite often and thought, based on what I read online, that it might have to do with my version of mac OS. This is because in this article
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210548
it is recommended that I install the Mojave 10.14.06 Supplemental Security Update in order to bring my system up to speed and possibly fix this constant crashing-in-the-middle-of-important-work-in-front-of-clients issue. This article includes the following statement:
"Installing macOS Mojave 10.14.6 Supplemental Update updates the build
number of macOS to 18G95. This build contains the security content
described in this article. If you updated to macOS Mojave 10.14.6 and
your macOS build is not 18G95, make sure you also install the
Supplemental Update. "
And since my machine has the "wrong" build (see below) it follows that I should install this supplement. Alas, the installer says:
"macOS Mojave 10.14.06 Supplemental Update 2 can't be installed on this disk. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update. "
the disk in question is my machine's internal hard drive.
Is there a fix for my crashing computer? (Have reset n-vram, SMT, safe-booted - all to no avail)
here's an excerpt from the all-too familiar Problem Report for Kernel window:
