Gee, after reading all this thread and the article, I have to kind of wonder what's the big deal is: especially when you can just run a clean install off the run time partition. I mean really. Same difference ain't it? Sent from my Mac, the only computer with full accessibility for the blind

is recovery mode accessible with voiceover? I remember having to use it for something awhile ago. I couldn't use it though because voiceover never came on. safe mode is not accessible with voiceover. I had to use it recently. I can't remember why. I do recommend writing to apple accessibility to

Yes, I realize now that I was mistaken, as I remember running from recovery mode and choosing to do a clean install from the thumb drive. Teresa Visualize whirled peas. On Mar 3, 2014, at 10:57 PM, Terje Strømberg wrote: > This is not always correct. I did a clean install with a bootable disk

This is not always correct. I did a clean install with a bootable disk start up disk did not see and it i.e. Macericks works quite well. When using command + r OSX did see the bootable disk anyway and it worked. Take care 3. mars 2014 kl. 20:56 skrev Apple Boy : Still no excuse. You can choos

Once you install using the thumb drive, you'd have to reset your startup disc to the hard drive at some point, yes? In any case there are several ways to do it. the article points out one way. You can also set your startup disc to the thumb drive, being careful to set it back to the hard drive

Still no excuse. You can choose the thumb drive from Startup Disk in System Preferences. You should see something like, "Os X 10.9.2 installer" in the startup disk group of radio buttons. If you don't then either it's the incorrect thumb drive, no thumb drive inserted or other problems. On 3 Mar

The install is accessible, but choosing the thumb drive isn't, unless you guess and count. I had to get about one minute of sighted help to choose the thumb drive, but the installation works fine once you load VO. Teresa "Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough."--Richard P. F

What? Why can't you do it all from within the USB installer? If you're going to use the recovery partition you might as well install from that partition. Just my thoughts. Regards Chris On 02/03/2014 23:02, Phil Halton wrote: so, then you would press and hold command R at boot up and then tur

The only thing to keep in mind with this method is that the boot screen is not accessible with Voiceover as far as I'm aware. using a recovery drive is, though. Teresa "Everything is interesting if you go into it deeply enough."--Richard P. Feynman On Mar 2, 2014, at 10:05 AM, Sarai Bucciarell
