Hi guys! I've download the Mac OS Sonoma 14.3.1 img file and wrote it to an USB drive with Balena Etcher. However on installation i'm required to have internet and after the installation my Mac Mini has Sonoma 14.8 which is a newer version than the image. Can somebody guide me to install 14.3.1 without having an internet connection or without having it updated to 14.8? Thanks a lot. hdo
