TR4L Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I know you can't use the USB 3.0 port on the PC you're trying to install OS X on, but can you use a USB 3.0 flash drive? I bought a bunch of SanDisk flash drives from Costco and they don't seem to want to be used as bootable USBs. This is true for memtest86+ also (I tried like 5 different drives before giving up). i have an 8GB Lexar drive that works fine but when trying to install Yosemite (on my HP N400), the verbose shows that it gets stuck on "Waiting for root device," which tells me the USB could be bad (according to what I've read). So, I want to drop tonymac {censored} and start over from scratch and strictly use this site. Off Subject: TonyMac sucks ass! No community help, and apparently, they stole stuff from the devs on the site (he even admitted to it in response to a blog post). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
