Hello,
I just upgraded my Dell Mini 10v from 10.6.4 to 10.6.5. I ran NetbookInstaller, installed from a Combo update download (not Software Update), and restarted when it said to restart. NBI did its thing and the comp restarted. Now I've been sitting on the gray apple and spinning status wheel for about 20 minutes. Should I let it keep going, restart, or boot from either a flash drive or safe mode and rerun NBI?

Thanks in advance!

Boot in Verbose mode (-v) and see where it's stalling. Post a pic if you can.

So, I tried to post a pic this morning, it said that it had to be approved by an admin, and I'm still waiting. I've tried booting to the flash drive, repairing permissions and re-running NBI, but it still hangs. Here's the last several lines (oh, the typing!):

Code:

So now, after repairing the permissions and the disk and re-running NBI again I press the power button and get Boot0: error

That's it. Nothing else. I've seen other threads with the Boot0 error, but they've all been for multiple-boot systems. I'm only running Snow Leopard. Any suggestions? Just re-install Snow Leopard fresh and transfer everything from my backup?

Thanks in advance.
