I am useing a MacBook with intel core 2 duo. I have installed Leopard succcessfuly once already. I made a partition for windows, and I ran a software called testDrive because I was having an issue viewing an external usb HD in windows. When I completed the test I went back into my apple partition and there were some items that were missing. So I went into disk utility to check the drive. I tried to verify the drive and It wouldn't complete the varification proccess. So I decided that I was going to reboot leopard. I have all the missing items saved on a time machine file so I am not worried about those. I formated the drive after inserting the Leopard disk, and now when I try to hit the install button It tells me that the drive must have a "GULD partition"(I could be mis-spelling the actual error as I am not in front of the machine right now.) What could cause this, I formated the drive to Macintosh Journaled and case sensitive. I cant seem to find a resolution any where on the forums or on apples website. Someone please help.

Well you must have been searching for "GULD". It is "GUID" what I searched for...
