Hello,
I have a 17 inch macbook pro shell that i wanted to put a hard drive in and install snow leopard on. I am trying to boot from the snow leopard cd but it will just hang at the white apple logo screen. Doing a verbose boot I see it goes to the boot.efi file, then loads the mach_kernel. Then it displays the root device UUID, then loads the drivers. Next it loads the Extensions.mkext file but it gives a crap load of dots and then stops. Is this a bad disk?
