As usual, Apple no longer supply a bootable USB Flash Drive with latest OS X releases - including the new OS X 10.11 El Capitan. Using this tutorial you will. Oct 01, 2015 OS X El Capitan is finally here, and if you're looking to install Apple's new desktop OS fresh from the ground up, then you'll be needing a bootable USB flash drive to get started with the process.
