I made a USB bootable drive with the latest version of Yosemite. Started the computer from the USB drive and used disc utility to erase the HD. Then clicked on install Yosemite. It gets all the way to the end with "about a second left" and stalls out. 5 minutes later it was still stuck on "about a second left".
Then I cancel the install, restore from an external HD and come on Mac-forums to see if someone can help.
I hope I didn't forget anything. I thought maybe the copy of Yosemite was corrupt so I made a new copy erasing and formatting the USB drive.
I really want to follow the suggestions made here about doing a clean install.
