Yay, I've got Leopard! Boo, it won't let me choose a destination disk for the install on my shiny MacBook Pro. Being a former Apple employee I hesitate to sing their praises or fault them too loudly but I gotta say that this was pretty lame QA even for a company distracted by shipping iPhones and whatnot. There are a few solutions listed on the net from waiting to clicking invisible panes, to firing up Disk Utility or running commands via Terminal. If you're having trouble, here's a thread to check out. Sad sad sad that it has to come to this on a GM piece of software. I guess I was lucky that my solution just involved waiting while others I know ended up wiping out their hard disks completely. Did your installation go smoother?
