Yes, it did all that, said it was downloading then disappeared. I tried
again and this time it launched the installer so touch wood it all
worked. (Should have updated you, rather crazy day). But when I did
'reveal app' (command click in Raycast) it opened Applications - but
didn't show the installer so perhaps it's invisible.
cheers,

hmm, spoke too soon. It was cheerfully saying '24 minutes left' then
suddenly it just says my mac is up to date and no sign of the
installer. Is it hiding somewhere or did it delete itself?

You can open the App Store and search for big sur, then download it
from there, if you’re having issues getting into recovery mode

Not so sure about obvious or straightforward. I doubt many with Big
Sur are aware about Recovery OS and what to do!
True (though I had problems getting ALT to work with my keyboard for
years so I welcome our new 'reach into the cupboard for the back of
the mac mini power button' overlords) but somehow I got the idea you
couldn't just put the OS back over the disk with settings left intact
etc. I call that straightforward;)
