Okay i have a lot of noob questions on how to get this install down so i will list them. U can point and laugh at me later.

1. To install on my pc, i will need a mac with snow leopard already installed?

2. If i dont need a mac with the install, how do i get the 6.13gb file down to 4.17 to fit on a dvd?

3. if i dont need a mac, but need an install, can i install snow leopard on an external drive, and follow the steps from there?

I think i have more questions. But right now i am just having problems with just beginging the whole installation process. I cant even find a program to mount the img i downloaded. Btw the only 1 i found was is called snowleopard_10a432_userdvd.dmg. Let me guess i got a bad 1. The torrents says its snow leopard 10.6.

IF i get help thanks for the help. If i dont guess i got serach deeper into things.

I think I'd laugh at you now.

1. you do not need snow leopard to install leopard. But you will need leopard to install snow leopard or another mac that can do the disk image to a USB.
2. Go get a double-layer disc.
3. You can install SL into an external drive but you will still need to get a .dmg file to a USB drive.

.dmg files are mac's equivalent of .iso. I would suggest that you get a leopard (iDeneb, iAtkos) installed so you will be familiar with it before you try to install SL.
