Error reinstalling MacOS Sierra - iMac Need help with reinstalling MacOS Sierra I have an iMac (late 2015) which originally came installed with MacOS Sierra. I am trying to reinstall MacOS after accidently erasing Macintosh HD. I've restarted iMac in internet recovery mode and able to reach MacOS Utilities window. After this, i select disk utility. There is an internal disk with title Apple HDD HTS5... In here Macintosh HD is missing and hence I created Macintosh HD partition. I click on Erase and then entered Macintosh HD as Name; Mac OS Journaled as the format. Based on this Macintosh HD partition was created. After creating partition, I go back to MacOS utilities and select Reinstall MacOS. I select installation of MacOS Sierra on Macintosh HD. However, after a few minutes, I get the following error - "An error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running this application again". I tried a few time repeating some of the above steps but wasn't successful. Any guidance to resolve above issue would be great.

an error occured while preparing the installation, mac book my plan was to erase everything of the computer to factory settings,, i deleted my utility disk data, and started to Reinstall macOS, which after 20mins it gives me this error, "an error occurred while preparing the installation. Please try again". I now cant get in my macbook air 2017 at all. the safe start gets me an Internet start, then to macOS Utilities, my only option i can use is Reinstall macOS, which after 20mins will give me the same error, is there another way out? IF this was windows, i could just simply download a windows copy from another computer and start up using that copy, can i do that on Mac?

Yes, abort BCA, we can cleanup, then you can retry. Do not use W10 1809 (October Update) on a Mac.
