vinvam Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 i'm having this exact same problem...anybody have an idea what this is about... wow, i feel dumb now... just figured it out it's actually pretty easy to do all you have to do is sometime before it asks you which hard drive to install on you go to utilities > disk utility find you hard drive, erase it (format) use mac os journaled, name the hard drive "Leopard" that's it.
