[QUOTE="chscag, post: 958176, member: 46727"] You can't use the 10.6 install disk for your mini because they're specific for the mini. Just go to your local Apple store and purchase a retail copy of Snow Leopard for $29 which will work fine to reinstall Snow Leopard on your MBP. BTW, which "etc" did you accidently delete? Did you delete the file "etc" which is directly under the main root? Or did you delete /Private/etc ? If it was the file, don't worry about it. If it was the directory you deleted (as noted above) then you will need to reinstall. Regards. [/QUOTE]
