Apr 27, 2012 11:01 AM in response to jamiefromtaplowby BDAqua,That second Disc thing happens frequently, the best way around it is to start over & do a Custom install, and eliminate enough Printer Drivers, Languages, Fonts, and Applications you don't need... then it may skip #2 altogether.

But, if you call AppleCare with your Mac's Serial# handy, they may be able to supply replacement Discs.
