[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1624788, member: 175845"] If you're using Disk Utility to erase/format your boot volume, it should mount on its own when you've finished. It should be formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and any option should be set as GUID format. Doing so will erase any existing data. For more info, check some sites like : [url=http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201909]Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture - Apple Support[/url] [url=http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1075]iClarified - Mac OS X - Format a Hard Drive Using Mac OS X Disk Utility[/url] etc. Once it's formatted correctly, just install SL onto the boot volume which should be showing and already mounted.
