Hello, A quick search on the web will give you the solution. I've copied the command but not the URL:
Basically, use disk utility to format a 8Gb or higher USB stick or SD. It has just worked for me. I copied the command from the file and pasted it in a terminal. I'm just about to install cleanly. It worked for me but do it at your own risk. Then: Run this in terminal and wait about 20 minutes: sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction You should see something like this: Erasing Disk: 0%... 10%... 20%... 100%... Copying installer files to disk... Copy complete. Making disk bootable... Copying boot files... Copy complete. Done. You can then boot up from the USB by holding down the option key, then install the GM from the USB. Note that this will also install a recovery partition (which osxdaily's method doesn't do).
