I kept getting the error -1008F after the download for internet recovery.I was stuck there as that was what my Mac did as soon as it booted up.Contacted support and there were two things probably. The Wifi in the office had been a bit dodgy, not sure that is why but connecting using an old fashion cable took me past the first hurdle.Then I had to go to https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/unenroll# At the bottom there is a link for leaving the beta program, I did that and then finally I got the recovery options...It would still not recover to any of my 14.6 backups. So I choose the option to set up as a new Mac which installed 15 again and copied all my settings from my backup.Unfortunately, Xcode and a few other things would not run after that so tried to restore a backup (again) and this time it worked.About 30 hours after trying the beta I am now back working again.So unsubscribing from the beta program is worth trying if you have this problem.
