I created a Big Sur 11.01.1 Install drive (on a USB 3.0 32GB PNY thumb drive). It shows up fine on the desktop and in Recovery mode. I can get it to install Big Sur to the 500GB WD My Passport SSD (in Recovery mode), but it spontaneously reboots at the end. When I try to select the 500GB SSD as the boot disk, I have to click on the lock symbol to make it available, but then, upon trying to restart, it tells me... well, see for yourself... am I doing something wrong or is there something I'm not doing?
