Dear all,
I am having a serious problem with my MBP 13, 2010 and need a help urgently...
Two days ago i got my 10.6.8. crashed. Trying to reboot did not work. After i boot it from original MacOs DVD i tried the following
(1) Repair with Disk Utility - upon the process, two allert messages appear - "Volume bitmap needs minor repair for under=allocation" and "Volume header needs minor repair". Finnaly i have "Was repaired successfully" from it
(2) I could also Verify disk permissions successfully
(3) For doublechecking run "Disk verify" again receiving "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" as result
Nonetheless, after that...
(3) if i tried to format with Erase i got "Volume erase failed with the error Could not unmount disk"
(4) if i tried to resize the Macintosh HD partition in Partition window, it returns the same - "Cannot be resized Could not unmount disk"
(5) if i tried to recover the entire system from the Time Capsule backup, the error message appears immediately offering to reboot and try again
(6) if i tried to simply reinstall the system, the process seems to start at first but after a couple of minutes stops with the message "Install failed, MacOs could not be installed on your computer, the installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. Click restart to restart your computer and try installing again"
Interestingly, if i reboot and try to repair disk again, the very same mistakes appear, even thogh they have been detected and fix just before reboot
Do you have any idea what else can be checked?
thanks in advance...
