[SOLVED] Consistent "Corrupted installation media" message while installing MacOS

[Abdul Haq Shaikh]

I have installed a new 128 GB SSD in a refurbished mid 2010 Macbook (unibody). This is the third time I have downloaded MacOS Sierra and followed instructions and made a bootable USB on a blank 64GB USB. However when I try to install the MacOS in the new SSD (which is formatted with MacOS partition) I get the message that the installation media is damaged. Kindly help me to resolve this problem.

Have you checked the USB stick you are using?

Try another stick and/or try the stick in another machine.

Or better still, throw the ancient Mac in the skip and buy a real computer!!

Buy a PC and install Hackintosh. But check if your parts are compatible with Hackintosh.

the download from the mac app store can sometimes be a very small bootstrap image, so that could be the issue for you;
