Hi everyone, yesterday i was trying to install Lion on my iMac(2008 model) . After dling the app from the app store, i was just following the procdure and then it restarted. After it restarted, i have a few options: install a fresh copy of lion, Utility, and back up from time machine. I wanted to install a fresh copy but it wont let me. I went to Utility to try erase the hd, but it says it is busy. When i try to reapir, it said it tried 3 times and still cannot be fix. After that i used the original install disc that came with to boot up the computer. It is even worse here because on the utility can not even see the Macintosh HD.

The problem now is i cant reinstall the OS and i cant boot back up to the regular 10.6.8.


What should i do?
