Well, I purchased a family version of SL yesterday, kinda a spur of the moment thing.

Anyhow, it seems my two year old MBP3,1 is having issues installing getting the Snow Leopard installer app to launch; i've tried three times and three times it's failed. Originally thought it's a faulty disk but after creating a tiny 10Gb partition on the MBP4,1 17 HD, it installed fine without a single glitch - so that rules out that theory.

Anyone else care to shed some light?

Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro3,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
So.. Is my system too old for Snow Leopard??

Oh, here's the crash report after attempting to run the application.

Have you tried rebooting with the 'c' key held down with the disc in the drive? That'll boot the computer from the install disk and bypass the "Install Mac OS X" app (which isn't needed anyway).

Doesn't work, after about 5mins, the disc gets trashed (ejected). I'm completely baffled, completely unexpected reaction!!

:confused:
 
I wonder whether there are defects in the DVD, that one drive is able to get around and the other is not. Put the DVD back into your 4,1 and try using target disk mode to boot your 3,1 from it.
 
Runs awesome on my MacBook2,1 so it should work on yours. Have you tried using the supplied disks to run a Disk Utility repair? Also sounds like there may be a problem with the install disk.

That, my son. Is a very good idea!! Thanks.
 
I heard of a few people getting damaged install discs. After they got a replacement the install went fine. It could be your disc.
 
OK!! I think, I've solved it.

My machine was originally setup so it doesn't automatically login, once fully booted into MacOSX and for some reason this prevented SL to install.

Odd huh? :rolleyes:
