Thumbs up for this great guide bro.. I was able to install Snow Leopard in to my HP Dv5 1104tx notebook and now running smoothly

When I was reading the tutorial u mentioned that not to use Western Digital HDDs, I was disappointed (my laptop comes with a WD HDD )and my HDD didn't boot after installation. But after so many trial and error methods, I got it to boot. Now SL is working like a charm!

Thanks again..
