Do you have any suggestions?
That sounds like a hard disk problem. You shouldn't worry too much about the slightly different version of OS X that comes with DiskWarrior. They put whatever was current when they burned the CD, plus they probably did some testing under that version. If the CD locks up at the same point on the 2 machines, then it seems as if the CD was damaged or scratched. Have you been able to boot those 2 Macintosh with that exact CD in the past? Have you try to boot from the OS X install CD and run DiskUtility from there? -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
