Q: Can't install OS X Mavericks

OS 10 Mavericks will not install because I get message "This disc is not formatted as OS Extended (Journaled). Use Disc Utility to enable journaling or reformat disc."

I used the Disc Utility and the main hard drive is already marked as OS Extended.

I have an iMac running OS 10.8.5.

Any Ideas?

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), Installing OS X Mavericks

OK, you say it the drive is OS Extended, but it also needs to be Journaled, as the error message states.
