installinf mac os X

[CMC]

Ok, so reinstalling mac OS is easy... just pop in the disc and reinstal..

but has anyone installed mac osx on a blank HDD... like bought a new HDD put it in their mac and installed mac os X fom scratch?

are the install discs bootable?

[Lowe]

CD is bootable - put CD in, press and hold C as you hear the chime. Once the grey spinning gear appears let go.

sweet, cheers...

It's really simple to do, as lowe says just hold down the c key.

Then it's a case of stepping through the wizard.

Far more simple than a windows reinstall as all the drivers are done.

at present it seems anything is far simpler than windows!

I put the disk in and let it get on with it
