Mac Monterey Installation
Well I'm on the verge of insanity. I have spent countless hours researching, reading blogs, going back to the same Apple Community questions over and over. I just want to reinstall macOS without any problems. I have wiped my hard drive, repaired the Fusion Drive, reinstalled Monterey at least four times in the last month. On every build I get errors, although it is installing the OS (I have checked and my Mac model 17,1 is compatible with Monterey). I installed using a USB bootable drive because the update kept getting stuck. Also my Fusion Drive isn't "fused" anymore, not sure why there are 8000 volumes.
Some of the errors:
During installation while viewing the log something like, "...allow scripts from external source must be set to true"

I am in the process of downloading Etre-check and will include the report shortly. Any help is greatly appreciated.Â
