TarDisk and Mojave
Has anyone using TARDISK been successful updating into MOJAVE?
Thanks for the info
Question marked as
Hello Jim,
Yes to following the instructions. Here is what I did. I backed up anything that needed to be backed up and un-peared my Tardisk and then re-formated it to HFS+ and named it TarDisk. (Then run FSCK if you feel the need). I then installed Mojave and got it up and running. (You do not have to do this first if you don't want to) Once it was up and running, I backed it up to a portable drive as my time machine backup. I then followed the steps on the Pear_TarDisk_Mojave.pdf.
Note: While you do copy the Sierra installer to a USB stick, you do not actually install Sierra. It is merely to change the structure of the file system back to HFS+ when Mojave has changed it to APFS. Once that is done, you go then restore your time machine backup of Mojave and everything works great. About the PDF...let me know how and I will send it to you.

Too bad we’re stuck with this. Hopefully there’s a fix
I hope this works. Would one of you mind to type out a dummies version for me? Sorry for the trouble guys & best of luck!
This seems petrifying!
I got those same instructions and the link didn't work for me. I hope you have better luck
Okay. Link didn't work... hadn't tried that yet. Let me see if I can figure it out.
I couldn't get the link to download high Sierra for me so I couldn't even begin. Did it work for you?
If you find it please let me know where as I will try to do it.
Let me know if you get the bugs worked out. I was able to get most of them worked out but security and privacy in system preferences caused me fits.
Yes and no. Mostly. Please see my other posts for more info.
Thanks for the report — I'm glad to hear you got it working! I'll let you know if I have similar issues or see a way to fix yours.
Thanks for the info. Which instruction needs modified, and where does the space need to be inserted?

Thank you very much for this crucial information. We would have been lost without it. : )
I attempted to start this weekend but needed to file away more data than I was equipped to do, and I also found the instructions between Sierra and High Sierra too confusing
