Diskmaker

DiskMaker X is a lightweight and very easy-to-use macOS utility specially made to help you create a bootable drive from macOS installer packages, with support for the last three macOS releases, from Mavericks (10.9) to Catalina (10.15).

Helps you to effortlessly and quickly create bootable drives with different macOS versions

DiskMaker X comes with a user-oriented interface and an intuitive built-in wizard that makes it easy for you to find the macOS install app and create a bootable install disk.

One of the first things you need to do once you launch DiskMaker X, is to select the version of macOS of which you want to make a boot disk of. DiskMaker X is capable to automatically find the macOS install packages with the help of Spotlight.

If the found macOS installation package is not the one you want to use for the bootable drive, you always have the option to use another copy and browse your Mac’s hard disk for the desired installer.

Carefully backup your data and prepare the targeted USB drive or disk volume

It is also worth mentioning that DiskMaker X will erase the entire content, including other volumes on the thumb drive you want to use as a bootable disk. Consequently, it is recommended to backup your data on another disk before initiating the building process.

However, if you decide to use another type of disk, DiskMaker X will only erase the selected volume, leaving other disks and volumes untouched.

Intuitive interface and smooth-running utility for all types of Mac users

DiskMaker X comes as an answer for Mac users that need a quick, simple and reliable way to create bootable USB drives and disk drives that can be used to install or reinstall the operating system on various Macs.

How To Use Diskmaker X 9

  1. Back up!
  2. Boot from an external disk. Part of previous step is a SuperDuper! (SD) update.
  3. Erase the internal disk.
  4. Run Mavericks installer from thumb drive. This is a 'clean' install due to the previous step, so it's supposed to offer to create a recovery partition.
  5. Boot again from the SD external and use SD to clone it back to the internal disk's main partition after erasing it.
  6. Boot from internal disk.
  7. Back at the original system, run the Mavericks installer again to install over 10.6.8, leaving all my files in place.
I also run Time Machine - it too is part of the above back up step. I can replace steps 5-7 above with the Migration Assistant pulling my stuff from my TM disk. Which way is preferable? Are there other methods?
My feeling is my 7 step plan is safer because it does not involve moving user directories and applications, etc., back into place from TM.
