[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1113251, member: 46727"] Sorry for the bad news but it looks like you overwrote your Mac partition. That calls for a complete reinstall. Hopefully, you were using Time Machine to make backups? Anyway, first reset the PRAM/NVRAM. Then use your Leopard or Snow Leopard DVD to boot the machine and reinstall OS X. Use your Time Machine backup to restore (if you have a TM backup). [/QUOTE]
