[QUOTE=".Bennett, post: 1280192, member: 96528"] Well the disk being bad has been officially ruled out. I put SL on a jump drive and tried installing it that way. Same error. The disc I'm getting from Apple I think is going to be Leopard (not Snow Leopard) so maybe the issue is with SL. But I'm not sure how I can ever upgrade to Lion if I can never get SL on it (SL is required for Lion). Guess we'll see when the disk comes from Apple if that works. I have a feeling it won't :/ I'm guessing this won't work, but is it possible to put the new HD I want in the white in my 13" MBP and load SL on it using my MBP and then just swapping the HD back into the white? Seems like drivers etc. wouldn't be correct but I figured I'd throw it out there :P [/QUOTE]
