Hi guys,
Just picked up a very nice clean 2012 9,2. Seller had wiped it and I guess reinstalled Mountain Lion from original discs maybe?
Anyway, I'm trying to upgrade the OS and can't believe the ass-ache it's causing me. Since when did installers have an expiration date? On my third installer now, booting from a USB but it wants to take like an hour? Made me think it was downloading the OS so I tried disconnecting the wifi, and sure enough the install quit. Why isn't it just installing from my USB drive? Why does it need a wifi connection?
