RE: Question regarding clean install
Hi Matthew, When you install the OS on your machine as a new installation That process also sets up an installation recovery partition as part of the process. As for everytime a sierra update comes out you don't have to make or create a new / updated USB installer the Sierra update will / can be updated to your machine through either the software updates or the applications store. As for eraising and or repartitioning of the drive, you can do that from disk utilities at the start of the installation process. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Matthew Dyer Sent: Monday, 20 March 2017 4:26 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Question regarding clean install Hi, I already have a uasb installer, but if I erase the driveand use the usb installer to install the drive it should work then.

RE: Question regarding clean install
Really easy way to do this is use the terminal from within your mac os, So long as you have the installation package in your applications folder you just write the command Sudo /Applications/Install|MacOS|Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/Createinstallationmedia --volume /Volume/USB-Device --applicationpath /Applications/Install|MacOS|Sierrra.app Give or take a couple of spaces and spelling mistakes the command is along that line.
