Hi,

 

I have leopard 10.5.8 installed on my HP dv6870 laptop

 

I am trying to upgrade to SL, it launches well when started from within leopard, but because I have problems with non-GUID partition scheme I need to start it via boot.

 

the problem is when I try to boot directly to the dvd, it stalls for a while and then I get the chameleon prompt - meaning boot failed on the DVD and the hard drive is now in charge.

 

the DVD itself is fine, I used it to boot of a macbook pro...

 

what could be the reason for that ?

 

thanks
