[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1319885, member: 131855"] Oops that's the kind of typo you get when typing on the iPad. @OP I see what you mean now. If you are installing a version of the OS that precedes what was on your Mac cloning will not work. Probably the easiest way to do this is to use an external DVD drive if the current internal isn't working. The one thing to keep in mind is each partition will be limited in terms of which Mac it will be able to boot. A Mac that shipped with Lion for example will probably not boot from Snow Leopard.
