do with NDA


  Unfortunately, the way they say to do it is to wipe everything and start 
fresh.
  The way I did it is I restored back to a 10.10.3 backup I had, put the public 
beta build on, then used the recovery partition to erase my drive and reinstall 
the same exact build, since for some reason I couldn’t get the 
CreateInstallMedia terminal command to correctly make my bootable USB 
installer. Perhaps it was the drive I was using, but I just gave up on that and 
did it that way and fixed everything.

    Basically, the main reason I want the public build is so I have the 
Feedback Assistant app.  The bug reporter is a royal pain in the kneck in my 
opinion, but that's all I can say.

    If you know a way around this without me just wiping and starting fresh, 
then do tell.

      The dev build is higher, so if you install the public beta build, then go 
into software update, you’ll constantly see the dev build unless you install 
that.

        Wait, I'm a little confused.  Are you saying the dev build is higher, 
or are you saying the public beta is higher?

          Hi,


          It’s not necessary, but that’s at I ended up doing. One thing I did 
notice is that as of now, the build for the public beta is slightly different 
than the one seeded to developers for beta 3, so if you install the public beta 
build on top on that, you’ll keep seeing build 12A216g in software update since 
that’s a higher numbered one, if only slightly.

            So, I'm a developer, and therefore prior to the public release, I 
had already a dev seed of El Capitan installed on my test machine.  I'm curious 
to know however:  how does this work if I want to uninstall that and install 
the public beta instead?  Do I just enroll the system like normal, then install 
either clean, or over the top?  Or is it something where you can't install a 
public build over the top of the private beta seed?  I'm not asking anyone to 
break NDA here.  I don't even need you to disclose the specifics of how to 
install things.  I just simply need to know can I do this, or will I be 
required to wipe and do a fresh install.  I know either way it would be 
recommended, but is it absolutely a must?  Is it totally necessary?

            Literally that is it!  That's all I'm trying to ascertain.  If 
someone can tell me this much, I can figure out the rest.

            Chris.
