I had the blue screen and mouse cursor when I installed on my iMac Core Duo. I just waited about a minute, and the desktop eventually appeared.
well with leopard nearly finished installing on my white 20" iMac this thread has made me very very nervous about what might happen in the next few minutes....will update very soon......
Erm, how long did you all leave it? I had the same thing last night when I installed it - left it five minutes and it had moved on.
Perhaps you weren't patient enough?

Both times, I've never noticed any install options like Archive and Install. Where are these? I know you can't really screenshot it, but is it like when you choose the disk you want to install to, like a customize button down in the bottom left or something?

I just waited a very long time and it continued.Hi everyone, I have just installed leopard, official version, not pirated.
When my mac restarted after install it has come back with just a blank mac blue background and the mouse cursor.
I was foolish enough not to back up as well :-(
Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do now?
Thanks everyone, hope your leopard experience is going better than mine
Tell me you're all just joking about this.
How could this happen? So basically the consensus is that NOBODY should upgrade and Archive & Install or a Clean Install are the only options with the least blue-screen rate?
I'm very disappointed as I will be receiving my disk tomorrow from my family.
