During Mojave PB install, white screen (apparent) hang

[blakespot]

I’ve got Mojave PB on a flash stick after following the drill to make it bootable install media. I booted my mid-2012 MBAir (supported) from the stick, wiped the SSD with Disk Util, proceeded with install. I saw the progress bar moving, things looked normal, I stepped away for a few hours, came back to a solid white screen. I rebooted from SSD, saw Apple logo, loading OS progress bar, then white screen again.

Something isn’t right, clearly. Has anyone seen this behavior before? Is there a solution known?

Thanks.

It was a bad stick. New stick worked like a charm. OS installed.

Getting some UIKit crashes but otherwise ok.
