In a Mac box
I just bought and installed (into my superdrive slot) an OWC Mercury Pro SSD for my MBP. I formatted it to Mac OS Journaled and used CCC to copy the Applications, System, Library, and Users folder from my HDD. I chose it as my startup disk and twice I got the kernel panic message. Did I not copy something essential for it to become a startup disk? Hopefully its not something that happened when I was doing the physical install into the superdrive :eek:

EDIT: Did a fresh restore and cloned all the essential files I could from the HDD and now the kernel panic message is gone but I just get the startup screen and then the computer automatically shuts off. Tried it 3 times. Any ideas?
