Cannot find a destination volume
I am trying to erase and reinstall Snow Leopard on an old MacBook. I installed a new HD 2 years ago and used the computer problem free. I first tried to erase the disk, but I was getting an input/output error.
I found on this site that it might take some time for the disk to appear in the "Select a Destination" window. Mac OS X 10.5: Installer destination window does not show drives - Apple Support
However to check the status, I went to Terminal as recommended in the article. In Terminal, I enter "ps auxc | grep fsck" and it returns with "command not found"
Can anyone tell me why the command is not found and if there is a different command that I could use? Any other advice?
Thanks
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.3), New HD installed 2 years ago
