macOS update failed, can't boot into macOS anymore
1
I tried to update macOS Mojaveto. The update seems to have failed and messed up the boot loader.
When I start with option pressed, I can only select the bootcamp partition and two drives that are just called efi. They all start windows though.
bless --info
shows
... Blessed System File is .../com.apple.installer/boot.efi
... Blessed System Folder is .../com.apple.installer
(... omitted by me). I can't change the startup disk to macOS though, it fails with:
Running bless to place boot files failed
the system.log ends with
Installer Progress: Status is "Restarting"
...
com.apple.xpc.launchd.domain.system: committing to system shutdown
assertion failed: 18A391: launchd + 142080 ...: 0x16
How can I fix this, or get more information on what happened?

It looks to me that you have run out of space in the APFS container. From your posted output,disk3is 1.8 TB in size, but this is composed ofdisk0s2anddisk1s2. The sum of these two is 1.72111 TB which probably means the displayed size ofdisk3was rounded up to get to 1.8 TB. The "Macintosh HD" volume (disk3s1) is 1.7 TB which could mean you are out of space. So, if you did get the installer up and running again, the result would probably be another crash.

It looks to me that you have run out of space in the APFS container. From your posted output,disk3is 1.8 TB in size, but this is composed ofdisk0s2anddisk1s2. The sum of these two is 1.72111 TB which probably means the displayed size ofdisk3was rounded up to get to 1.8 TB. The "Macintosh HD" volume (disk3s1) is 1.7 TB which could mean you are out of space.

You might try to reinstall OSX. To do that power off mac and power on, then click ⌘+R for reinstall current installed version of OSX or Option+⌘+R latest macOS compatible with your Mac just after power on and click it until Apple logo appears.

Did you tried to fix disk with Disk Utility? If you can enter into Recovery mode then enter to Disk utility and try to fix disk. Here is a detailed guide: osxdaily.com/2012/02/08/repair-boot-disk-mac-os-x-disk-utilit

You might try to reinstall OSX. To do that power off mac and power on, then click ⌘+R for reinstall current installed version of OSX or Option+⌘+R latest macOS compatible with your Mac just after power on and click it until Apple logo appears.

Did you tried to fix disk with Disk Utility? If you can enter into Recovery mode then enter to Disk utility and try to fix disk. Here is a detailed guide: osxdaily.com/2012/02/08/repair-boot-disk-mac-os-x-disk-utilit

The bless command is useless when it comes to APFS booting.
– David Anderson

@DavidAnderson as a way to fix it or useless in the boot process? To me it looks like it is stuck in the update, pointing to .../com.apple.installer/boot.efi

It looks to me that you have run out of space in the APFS container. From your posted output,
disk3is 1.8 TB in size, but this is composed ofdisk0s2anddisk1s2. The sum of these two is 1.72111 TB which probably means the displayed size ofdisk3was rounded up to get to 1.8 TB. The "Macintosh HD" volume (disk3s1) is 1.7 TB which could mean you are out of space. So, if you did get the installer up and running again, the result would probably be another crash.– David Anderson

FYI, @Geoff Nixon pointed out in a comment to a different question that
systemsetupis a replacement for theblesscommand. Some useful flags would be-getstartupdisk,-liststartupdisksand-setstartupdisk.– David Anderson
