[QUOTE="busi904, post: 1756481, member: 392002"] Hello, I am trying to install Snow Leopard on early 2008 Mac Book, and i am getting "MAC OS X can not stat up from this disk" message. Since i erased all of MAC Book partitions, and i don't have a Time Machine backup nor the grey installation disks that came with the Mac Book, I can not go to "disk utility" program to format/partition the hard drive correctly. For this reason, I am using bootable GPARTED free ware to format/partition the hard drive to HFS+ / GPT (2 partitions, 1 big and 1 small), and i am getting the above error. Anyone out there know how I can get the Snow Leopard to install on my Mac BooK? At present there is nothing to save off of my hard drive, so I am free to try anything. Thanks in advance - Busi [/QUOTE]
