   Exit code 137 usually means the process was killed due to running out of memory (OOM). Can you try doing a fresh install with the following steps:

   • Delete ~/.dotnet. If you can't or don't want to delete the entire dotnet directory, try just removing the 10.0.100 sdk and 10.0.0 runtimes
   • Reinstall using the script

   Bug / issue When using dotnet-install.sh to install .NET 10, the script installs version 10.0.100.

   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel LTS
   After the installation has complete, I try list the installed SDKs on my machine:

   ~/.dotnet/dotnet --list-sdks
   The operation fails with zsh terminating the shell. The ~/.dotnet/dotnet binary exited with exit code 137.

   zsh: killed ~/.dotnet/dotnet --list-sdks

   Operating system: macOS 15.7.2 Architecture: Apple silicon / ARM / arm64

   Expected behavior

   The ~/.dotnet/dotnet --list-sdks command lists all versions of .NET installed on the machine.

   @chrishaland what other versions do you have in ls ~/.dotnet/sdk?

   I was experiencing problems attempting to install 9 and/or 10 alongside 8.0.404 (still needed due to xunit v3 shenanigans in a particular solution) until I installed 8.0.416 first, ie:

   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 6.0 --install-dir ~/.dotnet
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --version 8.0.404 --install-dir ~/.dotnet
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 8.0 --install-dir ~/.dotnet
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 9.0 --install-dir ~/.dotnet
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 10.0 --install-dir ~/.dotnet
   
   ls ~/.dotnet/sdk
   10.0.100        6.0.428         8.0.404         8.0.416         9.0.308
   
   dotnet --list-sdks
   6.0.428 [/Users/anon/.dotnet/sdk]
   8.0.404 [/Users/anon/.dotnet/sdk]
   8.0.416 [/Users/anon/.dotnet/sdk]
   9.0.308 [/Users/anon/.dotnet/sdk]
   10.0.100 [/Users/anon/.dotnet/sdk]

   hopefully this helps!

   I have the following versions installed:

   ls ~/.dotnet/sdk
   10.0.100	8.0.415		9.0.306

   I tried installing the newest version of .NET 8 as suggested by @anaerobic (though our starting points seems to differ) and still experienced the same issue:

   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 8.0
   
   ls ~/.dotnet/sdk
   10.0.100	8.0.415		8.0.416		9.0.306
   
   dotnet --list-sdks
   zsh: killed     dotnet --list-sdks

   After the failed attempt I removed the previously installed SDKs and reinstalled them, which resolved the issue:

   rm -rf ~/.dotnet/sdk/8.0.415/
   rm -rf ~/.dotnet/sdk/9.0.306/
   rm -rf ~/.dotnet/sdk/10.0.100/
   # note that 8.0.416 is not removed and already present in ~/.dotnet/sdk
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 9.0
   # note that 9.0.308 was installed, I had 9.0.306 previously
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 10.0
   
   dotnet --list-sdks
   8.0.416 [~/.dotnet/sdk]
   9.0.308 [~/.dotnet/sdk]
   10.0.100 [~/.dotnet/sdk]

   Even though this resolved the issue, I prefer doing a clean install and I'm not prevented from doing so. Following @ellahathaway suggestion:

   rm -rf ~/.dotnet/
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 8.0
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 9.0
   curl -sSL https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.sh | bash /dev/stdin --channel 10.0
   
   dotnet --list-sdks
   8.0.416 [~/.dotnet/sdk]
   9.0.308 [~/.dotnet/sdk]
   10.0.100 [~/.dotnet/sdk]
