10.7: How to get a full Lion install disc for a new MacBook Air or Pro
I was successful with a 32G USB stick. It appears to need a lot of free space while downloading etc. but once over - the remaining files incuding the install dmg take up about 4 G. What I don't know is whether it needs a lot of free space on the install disk/stick when using it.

That's great. Perhaps you can help me though. I now have a 32G USB stick with an InstallESD.dmg and other files on it left there by the download. I burnt the InstallESD.img to another 8 G stick. But I don't how to use them! How do you get a hosed MBA to boot from the USB key? How do you reinstall? It's those vital steps I'm missing (I'm fairly new to Mac) and if you have the 1,2,3 of 'how' I'd really appreciate it! I imagine there are key combos? |
