What does the Recovery toggle mean?
Austin1 opened this issue · comments
This is probably a very basic question but I'm trying to understand what the recovery toggle does? The main thing I've noticed is the size of the download is MUCH MUCH smaller than non-recovery version. This makes me think the recovery version isn't the actual installer?
I'm trying to do a fresh install on a Mid-2012 Macbook Pro that won't let me use App store. Do I use the recovery version or the non-recovery? Any explanation of what the recovery option means and when you would use it?
Also, while I'm here, any reason we aren't implementing any of the 10 pull requests that clarify some of the basics like the README.md file?
These issues are usually not meant as a forum, but to report bugs that haven't been reported yet.
The toggle is there so you can download the recovery OS image of a given version instead of the full installation.
