  3. Step 1: Erase and part the disk (I am doing command line just because its easier for me, you can use disk utiliy, just make sure its set to GTP and JHFS+)

  11. sudo diskutil erasedisk free JHFS+ gpt /dev/disk4
  12.  
  13. # This will create 6 seperate GPT partions for each install again change disk4 for your drive
  14. sudo diskutil partitionDisk /dev/disk4 gpt \
