Hello all. I was installing a smc firmware update today on a 13 inch macbook pro from early 2011 (8,1), and the power went out on me (I live in Iraq, it happens). Now when I try to turn the thing on, I get a gray screen and a loading bar which gets partway through and stops. Then it turns off.
I've tried resetting the smc and booting from a system install disk. Can't find an appropriate firmware reset CD image on the apple website. Given my current location, a trip to the genius bar isn't really an option. How far up the creek am I?
