Yes it is the same for Lion & Mountain Lion. But if you Re updating from Snow Leopard to Lion, make sure you have done the preparation and checked that all your applications etc. are compatible with Lion.
My tutorial explaining how to prepare for and install and what to do after installing Lion can be downloaded at the link below. "The PDF below “Prepare for Lion” explains what you need to do to get your Mac ready for Lion. How to check your Mac can run Lion, the amount of RAM & free Hard Drive space required, and application ‘kind’ that will work in Lion. How to ‘clean up your computer’ and the correct way to install Lion. Then explains what to do after Lion has completed installation and the computer reboots into Lion." I would much appreciate a donation if you do download the tutorial. <http://ronnibrown.net/tutorials/prepare-for-lion-os-x-107/index.html> Cheers, Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad4 On 01/06/2013, at 6:37 PM, Stuart Breden <bred...@highway1.biz> wrote: > Ronni, I'm wanting to initially to install Lion but the link about creating a > bootable DVD for Mountain Lion is probably the same.
