Fresh install on MB Air 2008
I have a MacBook Air 1,1 (early 2008) that I bought with Snow Leopard and was able to upgrade to Lion just fine.
Now I swapped out the hard drive with an SSD and I'm having trouble getting the OS installed on the bare drive. I have Lion on a USB drive and it boots but won't install. I get the gray screen with the big gray circle with slash.
I'm not sure why that's being rejected. I am trying to get Snow Leopard on there and try the upgrade to Lion later but I can't find an installer I can but on a USB drive to do the install.
Any ideas how to get the OS on a fresh drive on a MacBook Air 1,1?
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7)
