Hey guys. Today I decided to go ahead and install Asahi on my old M1 MacBook Air. I watched a couple of videos on it first and then started. I didn’t get far. It’s been stuck at 76.2% for almost three hours now. The little spinner on the left is still going, but it’s made no progress at all.
It has a 1 TB drive and I gave it 65 gig, so it’s been working on resizing to that. I had 460 gig free on the drive, fwiw.
Do I just let it keep going?
Thanks!
Edit: A few more hours have passed and it’s now up to 76.5%. At this rate it might be done by Spring.
You need to resolve the orphan/invalid xattr before partitioning This may take multiple iterations of the Apple Disks First Aid, or in worst case, reinstall of macOS.
How do I get my missing 50 gig back? I did quit it finally last night and even though it was going to take 64 gig, 50 of that has now vanished. Disk Util doesn’t see it; thinks its still part of the drive, but my free space is down by 50.
