Well sorry things didn't go so well but after all it was your first
install right? I've likely installed OSX 100's of times and it does
get easier....
First off I would have done a force restart when I found that
i could only do an "Upgrade" install. Clearly something is wrong
here. Things do sometimes go wrong right at the beginning or near it
and it is best to start over rather then continue with a defective
install. Which is likely why it took so long. It shouldn't take much
longer then 45 min to an hour . You didn't mention what Video card
you are using? Best of luck Will S
