i was wiping my HD and re-installing Tiger from a backed up copy. It got to about 30 percent done, then showed an error something about Essentials. Said I needed to restart and retry install. well I did same thing happened. I tried to replace the backed up disc with my restore disc that came with my Mini but didnt work. I tried booting from the disc by pressing C. All that happens is when it`s trying to boot a folder in cirlce with a line through it flashes a couple times. Then it`s replaced by the usual apple icon with the loading wheel spinning below it. I have let it try to load for close to a half hour, it never gets past the white screen with the logo on it
thank you for any and all help in advance
