Once I purchase and install the new Mercury ssd, is there any formatting required?
My Mini told me there was enough space on the drive to do the job. I attempted to do this with 2 brand new 8GB flash drives. I do not have a bootable 10.9.1 USB installer drive. I did not successfully get this done although I followed the instructions. I recently did exactly what I described above to do a clean install of Mavericks on to my 21.5" iMac. Now when you're ready to install Mavericks to your Mac Mini, boot with the external hard drive, start the Mavericks installer and direct it to install to your Mac Mini. After that, move the copy of the installer you copied to your documents folder to somewhere on the external hard drive that you can easily find.Ĥ. You can test it by booting your Mac Mini with it. That will make your spare external hard drive bootable. Now double click the installer which is in your applications folder and direct it to install Mavericks on your spare external hard drive. Make a copy of the installer and save it somewhere else such as in your documents folder.ģ.

The installer will download to your Applications folder. Download Mavericks to your Mac Mini that already has Snow Leopard on it.

Format the external hard drive to Mac OS Extended Journaled (guid scheme).Ģ. Per cschag's instructions, I did exactly this:ĭo you have a spare external hard drive? If so, you can do the following:ġ. I realize this a couple of different issues in one thread, but I feel someone here can handle it all. Can anybody help me with what has happened and why the drive isn't big enough? The format created a partition and Get Info shows there are 7.63 GB available and 30MB of "something" on the drive. When I went to install OS 10.9.1, my computer said there was not enough room. I formatted (GUID) a new 8GB USB flash drive so I could create a bootable drive. Will deleting this installer cause problems? I am running 10.6.8 on my mini and I want to do clean OS install after I get the ssd and I want the latest OS version.Īfter I install the ssd, will it be ready for the Mavericks installation.or do it have to be formatted first? If so, how would I do that? Would that be part of the installer package (Disk Utility)?Īlso, per instructions given me in an earlier thread to create a bootable USB drive I followed the instructions exactly. My computer prompted me for my admin password. I right clicked the installer app and chose to Move to Trash. Now that OS 10.9.2 is out, I wish to delete 10.9.1 from my Applications folder. I have not installed the package because I am saving up for a ssd and was going to do a clean install of Mavericks and other apps. I downloaded the Mavericks 10.9.1 installer package a couple of weeks ago.
