- OS X El Capitan won't install on top of a later version of macOS, but you can erase your disk first or install on another disk.
- You can use macOS Recovery to reinstall macOS.
- I am trying to upgrade an older iMac (2008) from OS 10.6.8 to El Capitan for a disabled client who really needs to use a Mac instead of a PC!
- EveryMac says it can handle El Capitan if I upgrade RAM. It has 4GB now.
- I have an Installer file from my own Mac (always keep them when I upgrade). I made a bootable flash installer that mounts and seems to have the proper files, but it won't show up on either Mac on restart holding option key; nor in the Startup Disk list. So, I figured writing to the flash drive must have failed.
- I partitioned an external hard drive and redid this:
'sudo /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app'
- It seems to work (again) in Finder AND it shows up as a boot option on restart (holding option key), but when I select Install OS X I get an error that the installer cannot be verified. I can't get it to work.
- So, I figured my installer must have gone bad, even though I successfully upgraded my own Mac with it, and have since upgraded mine to Sierra.
- Using the App Store I can get to El Capitan, but it will not allow me to download it on my Mac because the system is too new, and I don't want to download it to the old Mac because I want to use an external drive to do a clean install; not an upgrade on the old one.
- Any advice?
