    hey guys,

    I just got my c300 ssd 2 days ago and I have been trying to fresh install osx on it. I dont plan on cloning or anything like that. I have tried countless times with the many guides out there. I finally got the point where I passed the installation screen then at the very end after it turns gray it tells me it can't finish installing.


    I got the log saved so If anyone can please check it out. I really want to use my ssd! =/ It is so frustrating!

    Is it best just to get a different kind of SSd? Are ssd just the problem?

    No, its all about how you format it. There's a guide GGJstudios has that explains how to format a drive for mac, or look on the mac support page on Apple.com.


    edit: That wink was a typo. No idea how it got there actually.
