that's exactly what PXE does, which is why I mentioned it. On most laptops,
however, it's turned off by default, and you have to configure a D

Hmm interesting! Might try internet recovery for the fun of it smile.

Ideally, the worst that can possibly happen to you is that you lose your USB
disk or its contents with the installer, lose the recovery HD (well,
partition), and have a Mac whose firmware was updated to support Internet
Recovery, but not so as to install the latest OS. Then you would turn on th

nothing is loaded at the time.

Hi,
Hi,
Note that when installing from the installer on a thumb drive, it often seems
to sit for quite some time around 99.8%. This appears to be normal and is not
indicative of hanging or freezing. Just walk away, grab some of your favourite
refreshment and your machine will restart in due time.
Hi,
If one does as you've mentioned and somehow wiped the entire drive including
the Recovery Partition, then you would need to use cmd-shift-r in order to
access the Internet startup and do your install from there. Things to note:

Hi all, My mac mini, late 2012 model, runs the same thing, and Maverics cleanly

could you email me, off list maybe if its too OT, about the accessibility of
Hadley courses on the mac?

Oh how spooky! That's mine as well! Since it is my first mac I didn't
for example max out the memory. Still Mavericks after this clean install
seems to run quite optimally.

Unfortunately, the install, stopped halfway. So there was no choice! Hence
having to do it the long way round. I am using Siri to dictate, so I apologise
if this message is a bit stupid.

That is why creating a bootible thumb drive comes in handy. My macmini came
with lion, but because I created a bootible thumb drive, the clean install went
off with out a hitch.

Right now the clean install for the new OS isn't as easy as it was with Chris.
I am running it, and the clean install process was quite methodic to say the
least. I will say no more cause I probably have already broken the DNA
agreement. Even though I am not a dev, and I am running this OS on
Having a drive to install from saves a whole lot of time. It takes awhile
sometimes to download the installer from the Internet.

It is important to note, when doing the internet recovery option, your Mac, or
I-mac, will install whatever operating system that came on it. For instance, I
bought my I-mac in late 2012, and it came with Lion. So, when I did install
Mavericks, and had trouble with it, I had to do the internet r
Hi again Chris. Yes, I can see how that would make sense for OSX to
automatically default to the recovery partition once the hard drive has been
wiped. At least, one would hope that this would be its behaviour.
Hey what do you know. I too got my Mac Book pro a late 2011 13 inch model.

Hello Daniel
As for me I did straight updates from Lion which was preinstalled on my
late 2011 MBP to Mavericks and so no wonder rubbish have been
accumulated. Lol! Well I don't know very much about this but the mac
does offer internet recovery which can be invoked with command-option-r
after
I reinstalled. Not bothered about setting my mac the way I want it as
it's less bothersome than it can be on the other platform.

Did you restore all things from a backup after that or did you re installed?

Hello Chris, am glad to hear that by performing a clean install you are
experiencing lots of improvements. Out of interest, before you did the clean
install did you upgrade from any previous version or versions of OSX?
As for myself, for the clean install folks this may sound crazy but I've been

Well my clean install of Os X 10.9 Mavericks is going very well. My
startup time has been dramatically improved thanks to the clean install
from over a minute to about half that time maybe less. It certainly can
