Hi,
I recently upgraded my stock Hard with a new 500gb one.
So I backed up my current OS onto an external USB drive via Tim Machine. Then took that hard drive out, and put the new on in.
I put the install disk in and went to boot from that.
In doing so, it told me I couldn't restore from my TM version because the version I had was different to the disk (Snow Leopard is the TM version).
So I thought, oh well, install fresh then put snow leopard on, then do a restore.
Did all that the restore went fine, at the end it said reboot - so I did, now when i turn the Macbook Pro 13" on I get the kernal panic message.
I don't really want to go through the process of reinstalling the OS again, only for it to fail!
So am I doing something wrong? BTW before I did the restore I was able to get into the OS just fine.
Also if I boot from the CD again it shows the hard drive under the TM backup name (Which is right) so I know the restore has worked..kinda?
Any ideas?
