Hm. It should have recognized the drive... but try rebooting and continue holding down the "c" key to force it to read the DVD.
No Bootable Device --- Insert Boot Disk Press Any Key
I bought a macbook 13" 2ghz. the original disk drive was removed. I bought a brand new sata drive, install it. I inserted the restore cd 1 and press the power on. After the startup chime, i see a blank white for about 4 to5 seconds then i get the message.
the recovery disk spins up but does not boot.
"no bootable device --- insert boot disk press any key."
well the recovery cd is already in the drive.
can anyone suggest a solution??
