[QUOTE="schlagi, post: 1618412, member: 336474"] Generally agree with MacInWin; one minor addition, however: If you start your Mac into the Internet Recovery (as opposed to the recovery partition, which would install Yosemite again), you will be able to format your drive, and it will restore the OS X the Mac was delivered with, i.e. Mountain Lion in your case. You can force the system to go into the Internet Recovery rather than the normal recovery partition by pressing cmd + option + r at startup. [/QUOTE]
