Apple’s 2020 OS is an absolute hit. Here’s how to perform a clean install of macOS Big Sur and reinstall macOS Big Sur from a bootable USB drive. Follow the instruction! Format the drive you will use to install macOS, and then install Big Sur through the on-screen prompts. It will say '3 minutes remaining for maybe 5-10 minutes', just be patient, it is working! Once your computer restarts, boot again to your USB and select the 'macOS Installer' option from the Opencore menu. With your USB drive properly formatted with the “Mac OS Extended” option, let’s create a bootable installer that you’ll boot into later to perform a clean install of Big Sur. Launch Disk Utility from the Applications/Utilities folder on your Mac. If you don’t want to clean install Big Sur just yet, you can place the new update on top of your current drive, which will preserve all the settings. If your Mac runs on OS X Mavericks or later, you can update directly to Big Sur. Note that Apple recommends you have around 35.5GB available storage and 4GB of memory on your macOS before upgrading. Install big sur from usb.
