Update failing at unpacking "essentials.pkg"
Last week I updated my mid 2010 Macbook Pro to the OS X 10.10 beta without any problem. Today i tried to updat my mid 2011 27" iMac to 10.10 and it gave the error: unable to unpack essentials.pkg, restart and try again. No mather how many times I try it it doesn't work. This was the same when I tried to install the beta on the iMac a few days ago. it took me 24 hours to restore it back to its state, because using time machine restore doesn't directly from this point doesn't work ether.
At first I thought it might be because I tried to install it to an external thunderbolt ssd, but after trying to install it to the internal hard drive it just "downloaded the extra components" and when it should be rebooting it just went back to the default OS X recovery screen.
I also tried making an external installer drive but after holding option key and selecting the usb with the installer on it, it loads and after a while it shows the big no data found logo.
Anyone got any ideas or even the solution?
are there more people with this problem?
let me know,
thanks in advanced!
