    Man I've been struggling on/off the past like two days trying to get mine to work, but every one would always have the process listed out in extremely undetailed points that just barely cover each step. Actually having the video show pathway code and then giving a time estimate was a godsend. Thank you!

      Delete the installation package that you are using and download it again, if you created a USB bootable drive format it and create it one more time with a new copy of the OS X, I recommend you to download directly from Apple servers don’t use third party websites, you get that error because sometimes the installation package is damaged

      Hi, I’m getting an error message on the terminal screen, it does the copying files to disk and then the making disk bootable but then says after a while “couldn’t mount dmg (error code 110) mount of outer dmg failed. Just to add the usb stick does end up having the installer on it. I have checked all the usuals like the matching names and formatting the usb correctly so no idea what it could be? Sorry to be a pain but really appreciate the help 👍

      Sometimes the installer doesn’t download correctly, what OS X are you trying to install? Also what is the year and model of your mac and what is the OS X that your computer is running?. your computer might be compatible to use internet recovery mode this will make your life way easier

      Make sure to copy and paste the code in terminal and replace “MyVolume” with the name of your USB, also make sure the version of OS X that you are trying to create is compatible with the computer

      I know now, lol. So you gotta install the package file in the DMG --- El Capitan downloads as a disk image. On a Mac that is compatible with El Capitan, open the disk image and run the installer within, named InstallMacOSX.pkg. It installs an app named Install OS X El Capitan into your Applications folder. You will create the bootable installer from this app, not from the disk image or .pkg installer.
