    That sucks!

    I hope you can get your money back, or get it fixed cheap or free. I have mistakenly made a lot of drink coasters out of CD-R discs when trying to burn an ISO image to a CD-R disc from MacOSX.

    You must make sure that you are not just burning the "Contents" of the ISO to the CD-R, when you click on the burn to disc button. What you end up with when you do that is a CD-ROM that is formatted with HFS+ like a hard drive and has the files written to it that are contained in the ISO image that you are trying to burn to disc.

    Was the OSX install DVD an original, or a copy?

    Welcome to MZ.org and I hope you can get your MacMini fixed and set up with MorphOS2.7 soon. Ask as many questions as it takes to get your install working (after you get your Mini fixed that is). Don't give up too soon.


    I burned the iso using Linux before the mini arrived. Was keen to get started ASAP lol.

    The OS X discs that came with it are original. I'll try resetting PRAM and VRAM to see if I can get it to boot from the hard drive again. If that works, I'll try the Open Firmware option. Fingers crossed. Hopefully the next time I post here it will be from MorphOS.

    Pete.
