MacBook hang after fresh recovery
Hello,
I will try to make a long story short. I had to reformat my internal SSD and re-install High Sierra. After doing so i get a message telling to update (I think it was iTunes) so I did.
But, when the Mac restarted it hanged before choosing the user. No way to pass that point. So I restart the Mac with command R, check the SSD with Disk Utility and reformat the SSD and re-installed High Sierra, but when it restarted same thing happen. So restart the Mac with command R, check the SSD and click on install OS, but now its not High Sierra but Lion ???
Been desperate I click continue but now it start to install, restart and the startup screen shows up showing 20 minutes left but never finish. I left it all night but the progress bar didn’t move after 10 hours. I’m totally lost, I checked all the known forums, but can’t even find what the problem is, either hardware or software.
Can someone recommend a fix for this problem? Thank you.
Update (03/31/2020)
I would like to add that I have tried to install Lion on a flash drive. It install the first part but now it is on “Install Mac OS” page with tine remaining -1 hours -32 minutes. That is with a minus in front of hours and minutes and still going.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Depending on the source of the file you can be facing a few different issues. Apples servers are likely difficult to get to with all of the internet traffic, If you share a WiFi with others then it too can be over loaded given we are all stuck at home.
I would strongly recommend you try early in the morning or late evening when fewer people are fighting for access to the internet.
