Answer 1

I appreciate the reply.
My fresh install from the DVD finished and the problem was still occurring. I'm now zeroing the data (one pass), per your suggestion. I'll then do an install of Leopard via Firewire, as I'm unable to start it from the DVD.
I'm curious how a bad install would prevent the computer from starting from a CD/DVD. I'm able to use the install CD/DVD in other computer without any problems, so I don't believe the physical disk is the issue. When I start while holding OPTION, and insert the DVD, it comes up as a boot-able option. Also, the disk image I initially used hasn't had any issues to date.
Thanks again,
Ben
