Created a bootable USB with El Capitan installer
Question: Q: Cannot boot from usb to install El Capitan I accepted a Mid 2012 macbook pro from my dad, which hasn't been used for years (in fact since the year he bought it). So the first thing I did was upgrade the system straight to El Capitan, but then I found the system a bit slow so I am planning to install a new SSD and a new and clean OS. 1: Rename the USB Flash Drive to Become the OS X El Capitan Bootable Installer. The next thing you’ll want to do is rename the target volume that you wish to turn into a bootable installer drive, in this case an external USB flash drive. To avoid any confusion, we’re naming the USB drive to “ElCapInstaller” (without the quotations.
booted from it, erased my MBP (mid 2009), clean install from USB installer
decided to use migration assistant, most apps not working plus all the clutter from pre clean install
decided to do another clean install but MBP won't boot from USB and uses the recovery version instead.
tried to get Maverick back and basically ended up with a non-working MBP that went into a boot loop Jurassic park aftermath download.
did a reinstall from MAS, ended up DLing the entire Installer again, went to bed and in the morning and 'working'
MBP again, plus all the clutter and non working apps.
Made a new bootable USB key using terminal and yes it finished and yes it said bootable at the end as well as in Disk Utilities.
However when trying to boot from USB, start+Option, or start+cmd+r still no sign of the USB stick, which i guess would leave me
with a non clean install again.
