OK - That narrows down the problem to one of the files the update installer was trying to change.

Note: The "update installer" applies binary patches to binary files. For this to work, it has to first test the checksum of the target file.
If that checksum test fails, it can not apply the binary patch, so it gives up (with technical details in one of the log files).

The end-user summary is: "Installation failed".

There are complete system images available from a chain of links rooted in the "de-bricking" threads.
What you seem to need is a "signed image" format of one of those complete images that the installer will use to do a complete replacement.

GM would be the authority on where to find that file.
