Leopard came in the post today
So i stuck the disc in the drive, but when the installer got to the screen to select a drive to install to, it took an age to locate my internal drive. Then when it did detect it there was a warning triangle beside the drive saying
"You cannot install Mac OS X on this volume without changing your installation settings. Click options to change settings. The contents of this volume cannot be changed."
So i clicked the options button and the two options available are
1. Format as Mac OS Extended (journaled)
2. Format as Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, journaled)
Both options format the drive losing all my data and applications - needless to say I havent ran either of the options as i do not want to lose my apps.
So what do i do now??????
I cant eject the install DVD, to boot back to Tiger (or can i??)
Help!
Had to turn on my pc laptop to post in here, and that laptop hasnt been turned on in over a year!!
