How would one go about creating a 10.6.8 bootable USB drive?
My job has 20-25 Macbook Pros ranging from 2009-2011 models. The orignal disks are not available for many of these machines. I have a retail 10.6.3 Snow Leopard disk, but this does not work on the newer model Macbook Pros if they need to be reimaged.
Os 10.6.8
I would like to image one of the newer Macbook Pros, install all the updates and then create an image that I can use to boot from.
What would be the best solutions to make this happen?
Thank you
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
