OS Monterey installation freezes on 53 minutes remaining.

Hi, the installation stops / freezes on 53 minutes remaining? (Download was completed successfully).

Tried shutting down, restarting, rebooting. I also have enough disk space and the computer is compatible (2018 macbook pro, 4 thunderbolts).


Any idea?


Thanks in advance

Delete the present MOnterey installer which is in the Applications folder. Then boot to Safe Mode and redownload the installer and try installing again. . That boot up takes minutes.
