Q: upgrade to Mavericks NOT Yosemite

Hello All

 

How do I download the Mavericks update on to my macbookpro?

 

I have tried searching the appstore/update app but it does not show up, also searching on google results in a link (https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/os-x-mavericks/id675248567?mt=12) but following that link opens the appstore/update app and displays  an error message stating "Item not Available, the item you've requested is not currently available in the UK Store"

 

Do I need to go to an apple store and purchase physical upgrade medium (usb stick/DVD)?

 

Also at this point I am NOT willing to upgrade to Yosemite as it, at present, breaks both rEFIt and rEFInd (the boot managers I use) which would result in me having to carry 2 + laptops round with me (which is NOT something it want to do) to have all the OS's I need to have at hand available to me.

 

On that point does anyone know if apple's bootmanager will ever be updated to support linux?

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
