aborted migration

I started the migration process to a new iMac, but it was not completed because there was not enough hard drive capacity. Do I need to do anything to erase the hard drive before returning it? I did not complete the set-up.

Not enough space for migration I just bought a new iMac and am trying migration assistant. It says there is not enough space to complete the transfer. I did a check on disk utility and everything is fine. Also checked storage and there should be plenty of space. Help!

hard drive too many I tried to transfer files from a 2010 iMac running OS High Sierra to a 2017 iMac running Os Montery. Tried using "Migration assistance" on both, but they could not find each other. Then I did "Restore" and tried to restore from a "Time Machine", but it said it was wrong file format. Erased disk, then found I had 2 partitions, one called "Update" and the other MacOs, both 1 GB in size but the Drive is only 1 GB in total. I cannot delete either. When I try to in install Mac OS. it will only let me install High Sierra. If I do this everything seems Ok but I cannot update the Os to Montery Reply
