Hello!

I have some issues when trying to reinstall Mac OS Catalina.
I wanted to do a fresh install yesterday when Big Sur is close (do not want to be a prolonged beta tester for one more year).
Deleted my drive and in recovery, created a new one and having major issues trying to install it.

Takes forever to get this update done. Have tried a couple of times, waiting for 3-4 hours and getting stuck at 2 minutes left two times.

Have also done a hardware check with the "D" press after shut the computer down - everything seems normal there.

Does anyone have any suggestions what to do? I have a Macbook Pro 16 if that matters.

Many thanks in advance!
