If the mac has no operating system on it you can use another mac that you know can run El Capitan to download
the El Capitan installer Disk image.
Click on the link below.
Go to Download OS and click on OS X El Capitan 10.11
this downloads InstallMacOSX.dmg to your Downloads folder.
The next section can only be done on a mac that is capable of running El Capitan.
This includes macs that have the potential to run El Capitan but have been upgraded to a newer OS.
App Store Download El Capitan
A mac that came preinstalled with an OS later than El Capitan will refuse to do the next bit.
When downloaded open to InstallMacOSX.pkg, double-click on
that and an installation window will open, this does not install El Capitan
but converts the InstallMacOSX.pkg to the Install OS X El Capitan.app which
you will find in your Applications folder, it should be 6.2GBs in size.
Mac Os El Capitan Install
(If the installation window asks which disk you want to install to, you must pick
the disk that you are booted to at the time. Not any internal or external disk that
you want to eventually install El Capitan on, that is for later.)
Create a bootable USB installer disk using the Install OS X El Capitan.app in the Applications
folder and the createinstallmedia command in the Terminal app.
Read the instructions here,
If you do not have access to another mac that can run El Capitan then do you have a copy
of the Mac OS X Snow Leopard DVD install disk. El capitan bootable usb download.
Install Snow Leopard from the DVD, update it to version 10.6.8.
When you have updated SL to 10.6.8 open the App Store Updates page
Apple El Capitan Problems
and install any other outstanding updates.
After doing that you can then go back to the top of this reply and sort downloading El Capitan.
