All very odd.
I've just pared the system down to bare bones before I try out DFU mode but it's a bit odd!

Thanks guys. I've found before that the storage tab doesn't agree with other methods but there should be something to stop it quoting more available space than the drive possesses 😀
It makes it look a bit silly.
 
Lol.
I've re-installed now, just to try out DFU mode from a 2012 rMBP. It worked 🙂
It's a sickness you know, messing about with OSes.
Apple's thunderbolt 3 to 1 adapter and thunderbolt cable? I also have a retina 2012. NM, I just saw the other thread
