I was trying to enter the commands for converting the drive in the Snow Leopard terminal.

Won't work. Need gdisk. gdisk is not available in SL. Thus the use of Linux.

I have no idea what the second question is asking

If you are seeing the bootloader, there is no need to convert to MBR...

The commands to convert the drive to mbr is there a way to do it in the snow leopard terminal.

No. See above.
 
So there is something wrong with my computer because the flash drive boots on another laptop but not the one I am trying to convert the drive on. I go to boot options and select the flash drive but it only goes to a black screen. The flash drive was formatted to Fat32. could there be a problem with the formatting of the flash drive that's not allowing me to boot from it?

I do not get the boot loader for the hard drive I only get the Operations System not found.

Try 12.04LTS 32-bit (non-UEFI).
 
Where can I find the download?
