Apple Seeds Second macOS Big Sur 11.0.1 Release Candidate to Developers

About that issue with Catalina -> RC2 jump, I trying currently to install Big Sur from AppStore, it shows me that it was updated 6 days ago, so maybe it will fix that issue about "The bridgeOS update doesn't satisfy the given minimum version requirement.
 
When I installed RC1 I deleted the beta profile. When checking for update I was presented RC2 without the profile. Update went fine. Not complaining, but I have always thought that deleting the beta profile makes my Mac go back to only install release versions.
 
Same, unable to install due to the error as few reported here. /var/log/install.log says:

Anyone able to get this working?

Someone earlier in the thread said they got an email from AppleSeed that said you need to be on RC1 before you can go to RC2 if you’re coming from Catalina. I’m getting the same error as you and I’m on Catalina, so I guess that’s the issue. I’ll just wait til tomorrow’s release I guess, not worth that hassle, imo. ;)
 
When I installed RC1 I deleted the beta profile. When checking for update I was presented RC2 without the profile. Update went fine. Not complaining, but I have always thought that deleting the beta profile makes my Mac go back to only install release versions.
Same happened to me... being new to MacOS I was not sure I was exiting the beta program the right way... but others have reported the same thing.

Seems that if you had RC1.. then you were able to get RC2 whether or not you were still in the beta program. Others who did not have RC1 apparently are NOT getting RC2

Count me in also. Installed RC1, deleted the beta program profile yesterday, this morning the RC2 public beta is downloading, 3.68 GB. Go figure.
 
Still can't unlock with Apple Watch. Music is still riddled with bugs. What a release!
Works fine for me on my Series 2 watch (watchOS 6.2.9).

I'm confused by that statement and not sure what they're trying to get at. I (and many others) were able to upgrade to RC2 from Catalina 10.15.7 with no issues. I literally just used terminal to enroll in the PublicSeed and downloaded the update through Software Update, which put the installer in my Applications folder. I then unenrolled from the PublicSeed and installed Big Sur.

What mac do you have? And what do you mean by “used the terminal”?

I'm using a 2017 15" MBP. The terminal is the app used to enter in command lines. I used some of the commands here to enroll and unenroll. It's basically just an alternative than using the beta profiles.
 
Ok, I was able to install fine and get rid of the error by running the following:

sudo nvram IASUCatalogURL=https://swscan.apple.com/content/ca...n-lion-snowleopard-leopard.merged-1.sucatalog

After that, run the installer and you should be fine :)

This is an issue with apple's CDN, they haven't yet put the new bridgeOS (T2 Chip firmware) on their content delivery network. It means that when u try and install Big Sur RC2 from an older version of macOS, the version of BridgeOS on your mac will be outdated and hence the update will fail.

Will this IASUCatalogURL then be set forever to that URL? Or will it change itself after the installation? Or is there any way to undo it after installation?

Just want to make sure this won't cause any updating issues in the future.

Yes, it will revert back to the default after the install, just checked on my system after the update.

do you need to do anything but run that command in terminal? I tried and still got error after running this... oh never mind it copied the link with the ... and not the actual complete url so once I noticed that was the issue it installed fine
