Big Sur Beta 4 on External USB Drive Installation Stuck
I'm trying to install the Big Sur developer beta onto an external USB drive as a fresh install. I can run the installer, select the drive, and start the installation process. It goes into the black screen with the Apple logo showing how many minutes. After 6 hours (!), it reboots a few times, then gets stuck with the progress bar at about half way through. At that point, I've tried rebooting into Recovery mode and running Disk Utility First Aid on the USB drive, which fixes one issue. When I reboot again, the progress bar goes to complete, but it never boots into Big Sur. Also tried booting into Safe Mode without luck. I'm on a MacBook 13" Early 2015 Retina. I've tried this using the Beta 2, 3, and 4 installers. Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Chris

Xcode 12 Web Extension Converter Tool Not Found
I downloaded and installed the Xcode 12 Beta in hopes of trying out the Web Extension converter tool. I ran: xcrun safari-web-extension-converter /path/to/my/extension and got the following error: xcrun: error: sh -c '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild -sdk /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk -find safari-web-extension-converter 2> /dev/null' failed with exit code 17664: (null) (errno=No such file or directory) xcrun: error: unable to find utility "safari-web-extension-converter", not a developer tool or in PATH This seems to indicate I'm running the Xcode 11 version of xcrun (which I also have on my machine) which doesn't have the tool. The path to xcrun was /usr/bin/xcrun. How do I run the 12 Beta version of xcrun so I can run the Converter tool? Or do I need to uninstall v11? I thought you could run both at the same time. Thanks! Chris
