If you enjoy playing Oregon Trail, and you happen to be fascinated by "Startup" companies.There's a game for you, and it's called Startup Trails! It's a new browser game made by the tech policy website Techdirt and Engine, a DC-based startup trade group.

What lessons can be learned starting a career in law enforcement and finding out it's not the right path for you at an early age? And how do you know it isn't right for you? Mike Wood took what he learned from law enforcement into the software consulting.

Do NOT assume that the existing formatting is correct or usable for an install of macOS, it most probably is not. And that's home-hobbyist material: If you have plenty of time to spare and are working with no critical systems, have at it & good luck.Īnywho ! :-) I want to point that everything else you've been describing suggests that one ore more drives might be failing & when that's so you'll see all kinds of "wonky" behavior.ĭisonnect both/any old drives and get an known-good bootable USB drive, boot to that and properly format your new SSD.

Yes, it's "possible" to create a bootable Windows installer from a Mac, but working the other way is far more complex and - yes, possible - but the 'net is full of hobbyist articles with bad and/or misguided (at best) and outdated "tricks" and hacks to get things to work. Linux Linux, Windows Windows, and Apple is no different there. Kevin is 100% spot-on: It is - UNEQUIVOCALLY - the case that: When dealing with operating system X, a ground-level inviolable assumption is that you are working with said OS. Use the vendor-supplied method to create a USB install disk: the date was already set to sometime in December 2017 :P.'sudo' doesn't work, which I'm assuming is due to the fact there is no account on the device because there is currently no OS to house it.It could be that the SATA port or cable is dead where the SSD is connected.Ĭoincidentally enough, I found that page too during my struggles and tried it out. It would just be copying files to a FAT32-formatted USB stick.īut back to Dim's question: I think that when I had the error about not being able to download the additional components, it ended up being that the cert was expired, and this was the solution:Īlso, consider swapping the HDD and SSD as a test. I’d likely be having the same struggles if I was trying to create a bootable Windows USB stick using my Mac wouldn’t I?

You can get 3rd party drivers to add HFS+ support to Windows. I’m assuming because Windows and Linux can’t read/write the HFS+ file system, mount DMGs and open flat packages.
#HOW TO MAKE YOSEMITE DMG TO USB ON MAC CODE#
I really don't understand why Apple makes this such a cryptic Davinci Code type of process. Wiped the drives, got confused, frustrated, google'd just about everything under the sun, finally got to the point I'm at now with Lion. 2 freaking days ago, it had Yosemite on it. Yea, unfortunately it's stuck on the "Can't download additional components.blah blah" message, no matter how I approach it at the moment. Otherwise you're offered the macOS that came with your Mac, or the closest version still available. If you use Option-Command-R during startup, in most cases you're offered the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac. On an Intel-based Mac: If you use Shift-Option-Command-R during startup, you're offered the macOS that came with your Mac, or the closest version still available. However depending on what version of macOS was on the computer before you erased it, and hence what version of Recovery, the below options may or may not be accurate: You might wanna try a different key combo when you boot. Now I'm confused as to how I'm supposed to actually get the Mini to "see" this drive and use the installer to install the OS on the drives inside of the unit. I used Transmac to reimage the 16gb drive with the dmg file, per several sets of instructions which all lined up and said the same thing. I downloaded an official dmg from Apple for installing Yosemite. That Mac mini (if your last screenshot is right) supports 10.13 High Sierra, so focus your efforts around that version of macOS. It might work if you have a DMG of a completed macOS install made from another functioning computer. Are you following a guide like this one?īecause if so, I don't see how that is going to create a bootable USB drive, especially from a DMG containing the macOS installer. In your original post you mentioned TransMac.
