i bought an optiplex 745 with 2 gb ram 160 gb sata hdd and has an intel pentium dual core processor. I'm trying to put snow leopard (10.6.3) on. i am using the iboot method with iboot legacy and the retail snow leopard disc. i can boot into installer and start the install on the formatted hard drive. it installs for about 5 to 10 minutes and then it gives an error.the install logs says that "java.pkg" cannot be verified. i have tried custom installs with only the essential packages but java is essential. I know its not the disc because i had a used disc and thought that was it so i bought a brand new one from apples website and the same error occurred. i am using an external dvd drive because the dvd drive on the desktop isnt working but i can get a new optical drive if necessary. Thanks for any help you can give.
