[QUOTE="michelangelo, post: 1549427, member: 54225"] I tried, with a new €12.00 flash drive, to use the method above. It failed (it changed the flash drive volume name into "OSX Install ESD" and did not create an installer in it), for the reason explained in the macworld quoted article (that is in page 4 of this thread). <[url=http://www.macworld.com/article/2056561/how-to-make-a-bootable-mavericks-install-drive.html]How to make a bootable Mavericks install drive | Macworld[/url]> So I used the scary "use createinstallmedia" option proposed by the macworld article, and it worked perfectly, after some scary moments of doubt. When copying and pasting into Terminal the recommended sudo command and literally understanding nothing of what it contains, you need a truckload of faith in its drafter. Thanks to all, it worked.:Blushing: [/QUOTE]
