M mbpmpb17 macrumors member Original poster Sep 8, 2012 #1 I bought a 16GB USB to make a bootable drive for mountain lion (I'm installing a SSD). The first step is to create the bootable disk, but I can't find the file to backup using 'Lion disk maker'. Can I re-download the file from the app store?
