No OS X system backups were found
Hi.
I was having speed issues with my Macbook pro and as a last resort decided to do a full wipe and reinstall of OSX Mountain Lion.
I created a comprehensive backup using Time Machine onto a brand spankingly new hard drive that came formated for Mac.
After wiping my internal HDD, and installing Moutain Lion afresh, I have attempted to restore the Time Machine backup...
I rebooted, held alt/option to get OS X Utilities > selected Restore From Time Machine Backup > Restore your system > Chose my External Drive > No OS X System Backups were found...
How can I get this menu to recognise that the back up is there?
The .backupdb file is the only thing on the external drive.
