"You can restore your Mac to factory settings by erasing your Mac, then reinstalling OS X using the built-in recovery disk." Unfortunately, the link you sent takes me to the instructions I mentioned having seen in my original posting and which, as I said there, start with In addition to this I have a CD of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.Īs I don’t want to mess things up, I’d be grateful for advice on how to proceed in order to arrive at a clean-installed 10.11.1 El Capitan as the OS X on my iMac. Under Disk Images its shows Apple Disk Image Media 2.15 GB Disk Image External Physical Disk, and as its content the OS X Base System. When I re-start the Mac holding down Command and R and get to Disk Utility, it shows under Internal the 250.06 GB SATA Physical Disk, with Macintosh HD as its content. I’m worried that if I revert to that, I wouldn’t be able to move to re-installing El Capitan, as it requires as installed OS X 10.6.8 or later. However these start with the sentence "You can restore your Mac to factory settings by erasing your Mac, then reinstalling OS X using the built-in recovery disk,” and the factory setting on my Mac would be that from 2008. I can find instructions on how to erase and reinstall El Capitan.
To do this I want to clear my files and software out of the machine by doing a clean install of El Capitan.
I have an early 2008 iMac, 2.4GHz 4GB RAM, OS X upgraded to El Capitan 10.11.1, which I want to sell.
