Okay, so i'm not a mac owner and have progressed thus far using just a PC. I copied the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 disk onto my external HDD using transmac, and put NBI_083F onto a 1gb Usb stick using Win32 Disk Imager. I have tried repeatedly to install Snow Leopard on my Mini 10v, but i keep receiving a kernel error.

I select the OSX install DVD, which takes me to the white screen wit the apple logo - then after a couple of seconds the screen changes to:


I'd be incredibly grateful for any help at all, and if someone gives me the clue to installing this successfully, they can have the contents of my PayPal account (only about $5.50, or £3.50 in my neck of the woods, but still it's better than nothing )

1st of all, your pics are way too big....
2nd just follow these instructions and you will be fine: http://osx.mechdrew.com/guides/
3rd I will give you my paypal info after you are done installing it successfully

I'm still not having any luck, i've literally followed Mechdrew's guide by the letter, but still getting the same error after the apple logo pops up for a couple of seconds
