So of course second attempt that I had read on is to just access another iMac or even an iPad to download what you need and do it in that order which I don't have access to that stuff unless I somehow just go up the Best buy and download all that stuff right on the spot. This thing will not even attempt to load iCloud it will do everything else for the most part as I've surfed the web on it quite a bit but it will not take you to that page, it will just sit and load forever. Now originally when I was trying to attempt this the most obvious way of getting this to work is to go online and log into your iCloud account and then initialize the install. On the iMac or on my PC? Because the problem about the iMac is that it's only allowing me to go into OS X utilities, which the only four options it gives me is restore from The Time machine backup, reinstall osx, get help online, and disk utility. And I have been using this with Transmac so I'm not certain why exactly it's not working in the way that it's supposed to. Even if I try to boot into it through the start up process it doesn't even show the USB. I've been having to do this on my Windows computer and for the most part up until now I can create a bootable USB but it doesn't actually find the image? If I go into reinstall OS X it states that it's there but then that's where it gets complicated on my part stating that it's not set up proper for GUID or other times it tells me it's not journaled. I was able to get a iMac 20' (either 08-09 model) and I'm basically just trying to get the operating system installed on it which it says it has El Capitan but it won't proceed any further since I can't gain access to the app store to get what I need.

You can now quit Terminal and eject the volume.So I'm kind of doing the same thing myself and just hear me out when I say that I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to anything Apple related. When Terminal says that it's done, the volume will have the same name as the installer you downloaded, such as Install macOS Ventura.After the volume has been erased, you may see an alert stating that Terminal would like to access files on a removable volume.Terminal shows the progress as the volume is erased. When prompted, type Y to confirm that you want to erase the volume, then press Return.Terminal doesn't show any characters as you type. When prompted, type your administrator password.

If the volume has a different name, replace MyVolume in the command with the name of your volume.

Each command assumes that the installer is in your Applications folder, and MyVolume is the name of the USB flash drive or other volume you're using. Type or paste one of the commands below into Terminal, then press Return to enter the command.Open Terminal, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.Plug in the USB flash drive or other volume that you're using for the bootable installer.
