I created the USB stick using this command: sudo /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia -volume /Volumes/Untitled -applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app –-nointeraction I boot the USB stick I made from an El Capitan package that I downloaded from the App Store. Bizarre! Somehow during the install of El Capitan it decides to switch and install Yosemite instead of El Capitan.

When I boot the USB to the El Capitan installation, everything goes through, but for some reason I end up with Yosemite instead of El Capitan. I made a bootable USB drive with the El Capitan installationfor my 2013 13' MacBook Air.
