Clean Install Snow Leopard HD

Got a bit confused when the DVD didn't provide an option to erase and install a fresh copy of snow leopard so thought a vid would be handy for you guys.

This is how to Clean Install Snow Leopard 10.6. NOT upgrading it from Leopard 10.5. I used the £25 / $30 DVD incase you wondered. Hope it helps.

if i have a blank hard drive can i just buy the $30 lion disk and install it like that?

@benmejia93 you cant buy Lion osx on a disk, only as a thumb drive. if you purchased a thumb drive or made a Lion thumb drive / disk yourself then yes you can install it using the same method as above.

@TurtleKakashi oh ok thanks! but if i buy snow leapord 29.99 dvd itll work just by putting that right??

[TurtleKakashi]

@benmejia93 yeh snow leopard definitely will work. i'd recommend installing lion though as its the latest operating system.

do you lose your data after installation?

[TurtleKakashi]

@91Supercooler yes u do if your using this method. if u wanna keep your files u can just upgrade from leopard the standard way.
