Installing Mac OS X 10.9.1 in a MacBook Pro 15" A1226 on a 320 GB 5400 RPM SATA Hard Drive (New). OS already purchased, how to install Mac OS 10.9.1 Mavericks on a new HD. This OS is only sold as an App download from Apple’s App Store.
Use your original system installation DVD and format then install the system that came with it. Now you can access the Apps Store and download and install 10.9.2. Otherwise you’re going to need another Mac to create a 8 GB Flash drive installation, this is somewhat complicated.
