does it boot if you leave dvd in drive and do nothing?
If the answer is yes then you need to install bootloader manually.

I have put the dvd i the drive and install leo. then i boot my pc again and it started the setup again. then i took th dvd out f the drive and boot again. "bot disk failure put in a system disk and press enter". i open the boot menu and click: "boot from Harddrive" tehn it comes again: "boot disk failure ..."

mbr is a type of partition used to usually boot up Windows Partitions. Master-Boot-Record. GUID is default in Mac.
