Problems upgrading to macOS Mojave on MacBook Pro 2018

As macOS Mojave was released today, I thought I would try to upgrade my 15" MacBook Pro 2018 to the latest software. However, when I'm running the installer, after around 2-3 minutes I get an error message that a problem has occurred, with no solution in sight. I have tried to reboot, turn it on and off, updated without internet etc etc, nothing works. This is the error message I'm getting (in Swedish):

MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018), macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

It seems that many people have gotten confirmation from Apple that this is an issue with the T2 chip.

I would STRONGLY advice you to stay on whatever OS you are running now, do NOT try to install Mojave or reinstall the OS you are running. Even the people who have gotten it to work are experiencing several bugs with Mojave. If I were you, I would wait until Apple releases a patch for the OS so that it works with the new MBP:s. Thanks for all the insight everyone!

Unable to kill the process. The “x” in the upper left corner is grayed out.

Well, at least you know that You've done everything you could, and now the ball is indeed in Apple's court for your setup.

The question is how long will they hang on to the ball.......lateral, fumble, incomplete ????

I think probably 99.9 % of upgrades are ok judging by what we have seen here.

So what you are saying its owner that is the problem 😁

If one module is not performing upto standard..

The stresses ram are put under at times are severe.

It could be a marginal timing issue.

Or something else entirely.

I’ve been performing upgrades for 35 years including SSD installations, RAM upgrades, etc. Have NEVER seen anything close to this. Delighted to hear that your Mom has been successful.
