GUID, is what apple use's on the real intel mac's and from what i've read is that rev 2 supports it, since my install takes 5 hours, i dident do it, just in case its a bit buggy, it would probably give you a performance boost, and a more "genuine" experience if you will.

hackintosh4life you have dual core or single ? sata or ata?

edit: rev2 supports it but the post install GUID script has a bug, if you chose GUID you must fix it after the install is finished

Only thing I could suggest that would be causing it is slow dvd drive and slow hdd, harsh that it takes that long though.

I have tested several Harddisks in the past.

On 300 GB Maxtor SATA it takes about 15-20 minutes.
On my 40 GB Maxtor IDE it takes about 25-30 minutes,
on a very old 20 GB Maxtor IDE it takes 1 hour,
trying to install it on a Western Digital 70 GB USB External would have taken about 4h 30 min

hopefully I would say it wouldn't, since it seems if yours is taking 5hrs instead of 30mins, then 7mins ~ the 1 min hang, so you should be able to get it to skip on to the final bits.

Good luck
