Q. I have the snow leopard installer on my laptop, but I tried to put it on a cd, then when I did so, I tried booting with the cd and it wouldn't let me (The way where you press 'c' on start up). It just went straight to the start menu, how do I do it?
A. What the hell? What makes you think that just the installer is all it takes?? That's utterly absurd. The installer is a tiny portion of what is actually on the Snow Leopard disc. To copy it off you'd need to clone the whole Snow Leopard disc to a dual layer DVD. You can do absolutely NOTHING with just the installer. How the hell do you think such a small file could install an entire OS all by itself in the first place?
Can I use my Snow Leopard disk to perform a clean install?
Q. I am planning to use DNUKE to erase my HD and reinstall snow leopard, but I would be using the Snow Leopard disk from the apple store that I used to upgrade my macbook from Leopard to snow leopard.
My question is after I DNUKE the hard drive, can I use the snow leopard disk to install the OS or do I need to find the disk that originally came with my macbook and then use snow leopard to upgrade from leopard again?

A. duh you can do a fresh install fine........I have like 300 macs (i fix & refurbish) just the snow leopard disc is needed
What happens to my data when I upgrade Leopard to Snow Leopard?
Q. I would like to upgrade my mac to Snow Leopard to have access to more recent programs and abilities. I was wondering if my data would get affected in any way. For example, if my text files would be erased or if my games/programs would be deleted.
A. NO they will be fine
the only problem you will have is if you have a 3rd party program
Like Quicken they did not have support for it but have fixed it.
So all issues have been fixed by developers, Wait till 28th Mountain lion is coming out.
But If your worried go for Snow Leopard if your computer can handle the RAM.

Can i use iboot to install snow leopard on an external hard drive?
Q. I have an hp computer with an intel chipset. i would like to install snow leopard on either the internal hard drive alongside windows or on an external hard drive. is this possible? if so how can i do this.
A. The USB connection to the external HDD would be a huge bottleneck. It may work, but you're likely going to run into some isssues. Also you would have to make sure that all your hardware is supported by snow leopard. Not all PC hardware has a corresponding mac driver.
