Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Just did a factory restore on my 2012 MBA and wanted to do a clean install of OSX. A window appears saying Can't download the additional components needed to install OS X.
I have wifi connection working but the same window appears over and over
Please help...
MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)
Internet recovery (Lion) didn't work for me, it ran for a couple of days and I tried at least 4 times. I got the message can't download using a disk (new hard drive).

The MBA came with OSX ML btw. All I did was boot with cmd R > disk utility > erase Macintosh HD > quit disk utility > reinstall OS X ML but keep getting the same error over and over. Wifi is on...
Now I'm getting "could not write installation information to disk. Contact applecare."...
Use Command+Option+R during boot to access internet recovery mode. You'll need a fast and stable internet connection as all of ML will be downloaded directly from Apple's servers.
