Just reboot holding alt/option key and choose your MacOS system partition: it will reboot as you expect.

Then you can either remove the installer for the update and wait for official release or just wait for the official release 🙂

The problem seems to be because you do have another partition active (bootcamp maybe?), I have the same issue.


Hope this help

For future reference: you signed a non-disclosure agreement when signing up for the beta which means you are not allowed to discuss anything at all related to it anywhere. And, since Apple considers beta software confidential, we are not allowed to discuss it here either.


Please submit your problems to Apple via the built in Feedback Assistent and/or contact Apple in the future.
