Hi A clean install is OSX with nothing. Only Maverick for example. All the settings have to be done again. Like VO settings. Then you probably can do a restore from backup of different apps. Not sure if it works on a clean install. Music, photos, documents should not be a problem to restore from a backup on a clean install.
