Please describe your workflow with installation process. Why you unable to start installation?

In order to start installation you need to mount DMG installation image by double-clicking on it in Finder, then you need to double-click Install Autodesk AutoCAD 2021 for Mac.app to start installation process.

When I tried to install 2021 on a new M1 Air I had problems due to Rosetta not being installed yet.  So I started the install of the 2021 Service Pack which kicked in the (Apple) Rosetta install.  Once that was complete I cancelled the service pack install, installed the main 2021 install, then the service pack.
