10.8 Clean install question.
i have lion installed on my macbook and i am about to install mountain lion. im going to do a clean install, i have made a bootable usb and am ready to go. my question is this. if i use disk utility (ran from the USB drive) erase the HD will it remove all the partitions that lion made (the main system partitions and the recovery partition). i want all the data and partitions gone and for the HD to be a "true" blank slate before i install mountain lion (im ocd that way lol)
any info would help, thanks
