    Default install on Acer Extensa 5620

    Ive been having no luck getting OSx to install on my desktop, so i thought i would try installing it on my laptop that i never use (will probally be easier since its all intel)

    i dont have any dual-layer DVDs to burn the disk to and i dont have a 8gig usb drive, but i do have an external USB HDD that i can use... how would i go about putting in install file on the HDD so i can boot from it?


    and any other suggestion would be helpful

    You just need to restore the image .dmg file and install bootloader to the ext. USB HDD.
