Hi all,
Forgive me for asking but I have searched and cannot find answer to this, but I might have missed it if there is one.
I am wanting to do a clean install of OSX Mountain Lion. I have already upgraded and it is running ok on my Mid 2010 MBP.
I am currently running Software OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)
I want to do a clean install on this machine as it is a bit cluttered after two festivals and two wedding seasons, and it was upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and now to Mountain Lion.
However, when I go to create the disc image through Disk Utility and burn the Installer it is telling me that there is not enough room on the DVD. They are however, 4.7Gb Blank Writeable Discs.
It says the image is only 4.35Gb, so I do not understand this.
I also have a 16Gb USB memory stick, as one large drive, and it also says the same for this.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance.
Steve
