Im using SCSI hdd? what does that even mean. Also, i get this error and i havent even installed it yet.

I dont even get to install it. If i Boot of my Leo CD to Install it, i get endless text messages "still waiting for root device" and then 5 times (I forgot the exact name,but it was this kernel problem thing =))...

hey man i'M trying to install snow leopard retaill on my external hard drive, i'm using a usb stick to boot it off then install it on my external hard drive.

BUT after when the installations about to be done it say this

"Install failed. Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer

The installer could not make the computer start up from the volume"mac". You may need to select your disk using startup Disk utility.

Click restart & try again"

WHAT DO I DO?
