[QUOTE="ycl1688, post: 1287025, member: 194767"] To make life easier, why not talk to apple since your new mbp is pretty new ? else you can try this if your new mbp is not pre loaded with lion, download lion only to your white macbook again and create a usb or dvd install disk and using the install disk, install to your new mbp. You can leave the download on your white macbook, do not worry about it. I believe you have not create an install disk yet. After all the dust settle you can created a recovery disk using USB stick and should something happen, you can reboot from this disk. Keep in mind for install disk you need 8gb stick or dvd, and for recovery disk you have to use 1gb USB stick only and not DVD (no option from apple). Hope this help. [/QUOTE]
