[QUOTE="zita_escobar, post: 1317013, member: 220289"] Thanks for your attempt to reply MacsWork. Please do not be a judge of whether I was messing around or not - based on the fact (100% fact) that a Mac OS X DVD that claims to be an OS installer does not even boot. Please do not try to defend Apple without being unbiased. A single person cannot be a global Mac-Cop for 'everyone'. Whether 'we' keep Linux out of 'our' Mac is totally up to us. Option key while booting used to work when Mac OS X used to boot normally. Now that it doesn't boot, option key also stopped working. Also, as evident from step 7 mentioned in original post "Zapping the PRAM" was already attempted. We all have our lessons learnt, another Mac Mini is out of question. Any other genuine geeks please? Any accurate hackint0sh type suggestions are very much welcome. [/QUOTE]
