So I backed up my drive last night on Time Machine (I'm no dope) so that today I could upate to Snow Leopard. Well, I got almost through the install and then got an error message saying that Snow Leopard could not complete intsallation. I was able to choose my old startup disk and tried to reboot-- all to no avail. I zapped the PRAM, tried to start up in safe boot, and even with the Snow Leopard disk back in. Whenever it started up, it would get to the grey screen (apple showing), then shut off.
Then I ran fsck and got this error:
** Checking Catalog file.
disk0s3: I/O error.
Invalid node structure
(4, 3226)
** Volume check failed
So I know my hard drive is whack, though I really don't think it's failing (because I have gotten some errors previously on Disk Utilty). Here's my question, though. If I wipe the drive clean and reinstall Leopard, then restore from Time Machione, will I also restore just the drive errors? I do own Disk Warrior and Prosoft's Drive utiltiy (Sorry, am at work-- can't remember the name). . .
Suggestions, please!
