Hi, Cmd r works but give it some time to load what it needs.
But why are you trying to boot from an external drive? You could try using start up disk under system preferences, Or if you have sighted assistance you could try Holding down the option key at start up and then selecting the bootable option from your list shown on screen.

Anyone else having issues with this? I do not have a motor connected nore do I have one to connect if that matter. If I do the cmd+R at boot, it just goes strate to the standered hd mac os partition. Any ideas on this one. I am using mac os 10.15.1. Thanks.

I used the cmd r option again and just gave it more time. Then got voiceover up and running. Note this is a 2015 13inch mac book pro with custom specs I had Mojave running on it before I wiped it last week, However when doing cmd r it turns out it’s trying to now install Yosemite hence the speed of the installation over internet seems to be a bit slower than average Thanks for the ideas though, They are appreciated.

I’ve got a number of Mojave installers but it would appear Apple have killed the certs on older installers as these of mine give a corruption message when I try to run them. I’m not wanting to install Catalina as the machine is being used as a server and my server version is for Mojave so I need to install that before updating. Anyone got an installer I can grab a copy of or other ideas on how to get this thing setup? Cheers. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
