I have a mid 1012 macbook air 5,2. I changed the ssd since it was very slow. Now I have to instal the macos (os x lion) in the new ssd, but it won't let me install it. I formatted the new drive in "macos extended (journal) ".
It downloads the installer and after a little while, it shows that ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น ๐ณ๐ถ๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐น๐ฑ๐ป'๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐๐ป๐น๐ผ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฑ.
And that's it.
Earlier Mac models
are you using command-option-shift-R internet restore to install the operating system on the SSD?
Do you have a clone backup to another drive somewhere else? Or at least a Time Machine backup?
It is important to note the system time may prevent installation. That is documented here:
