[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1627509"] Either one. Both will require you to do the download. In the direct install, you just run it and you are done. IN the USB approach, you have to do some fiddling to create the USB stick, test it and then do the install. The downside of going direct is that if it fails, you have to repeat the download, but in the USB approach you can just reboot from the USB and start again, avoiding the download. It's nice to have the USB stick, too, to boot from just in case something goes wonky down the road. But either way will work. [/QUOTE]
