Hi there.
I have tried several different methods but can't succeed.
I have a macbook c2d 2.4 4gb ddr3 nvidia 320m.
Everything was working fine, i had Snow Leopard installed plus windows 7 via bootcamp. I wanted to reinstall Snow Leopard from the retail disc, because I wanted a fresh new install. My problem is that there is no way of booting from the gray dvd that came with my macbook, it starts to load and then it gives me Kernel Panic, saying that i have to power of the system by pressing and holding the power button.
I already checked the hd for problems with apple key + s and also reseted the memory with the other combination (apple key + option and stuff...). The problem persists. Tried with another copy of my dvd (10.6.3) and same happened, tried with a copy of 10.6 and again the same.
I tried installing a fresh copy of Windows 7, and surprisingly, it installed without any problems.
Is there any known issue that could be causing that i can't get the snow leopard dvd to boot? I can not even get to the language menu selection, again, it gives me kernel panic with that message of power off the system after reading the install disc for a minute or so.
If you could give me some clue, i would be really grateful. I really want to install Snow Leopard on my mac.
Regards!
