How to install Lion from a USB Flash Drive

First, you need to have a computer on which the software Lion obviously not yet installed and a USB flash drive a lot of capacities, minimum 8 GB although personally recommend the 16 GB (or external media such as harddisk, DVD, etc. ..), and start the download of the software.

I recommend relying solely on the Mac App Store in this case because it is the only reliable source being the primary, after reading you’ll see how easily install the software on your Mac.

  • Go to the Mac App Store and make downloading software, once the download process will find the installation files in the destination folder, of course chosen by you in the previous step, select the installer, the extension must be .dmg. At this point, you need to download the DiskMaker, a very powerful and practical, easy to use and very small, if not automatically find the installation files you simply tell the software to look for and the location or route.
  • Once you arrived at this point, after you have successfully installed DiskMaker, you can start it, if you have downloaded the latest version, and it was that you had to download, a window with three options, cancel, burn to dvd and create a boot disk, Selected to create a boot disk. This will display a window with three options always in English, cancel, another kind of drive and an 8 GB USB flash drive, select an 8 GB usb flash drive, remember that the minimum requirement for the installation of at least one memory 8 GB, selected the latter then having chosen which memory to use you can proceed to the third and final process will automatically start installing the files in the flash drive, this phase will last about 10 minutes.
  • If the installation of the installer DiskMaker lion were to disappear, what frequently happens that you have to download it again, once you have completed all the process a key able to install the software with ease and ease, you save 4 GB in memory on the PC and especially the process listed above is much faster than others, and makes rapid installation. I remind you that to install it. You must have a mac, useless operation even following any guide to install it on a PC, install using physical media and dedicated software is the best especially for those who are not very experienced.
  • There are many reasons why you should use a USB flash drive to install Mac OS X Mountain Lion. If you need to install multiple copies of some computers, or even prefer not to have to download a new copy each time you need to install Mac OS. And from what I experienced, installing from a USB flash drive is faster than installing by downloading a new copy from the Mac App Store or from DVD.
  • First, you really need to have the OS X Mountain Lion install downloaded app. You can purchase from the Mac App Store. Once Mountain Lion has been downloaded, you will be able to find in the Applications folder.
