[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1470381, member: 56379"] You're not supposed to be copying the contents of the Install DVD from one computer to the other…you're supposed to: - Successfully connect the MacBook to the iMac via Firewire. - Insert the Install DVD into the computer with the working optical drive (the iMac). - Launch the installer (from the iMac). - Select the MacBook as the install destination. - Proceed with the install.
