Or tap Later and choose Install Tonight or Remind Me Later. After 6 days and NUMEROUS attempts I have figured out how to get Snow Leopard onto the new Mac Mini!! It turns out I wasn't thinking the problem all the way through.If you tap Install Tonight, connect your device to a power cord at night and your device will update automatically by morning. However I was trying to install the retail Snow Leopard (which is 10.6.0) onto the Mini using an MBP which required 10.6.3! I thought that the Mini was causing the kernel panic when connected in Target Disk Mode. There is a step after all of the applicable files are copied to the Mini (TDM) where the Source machine reboots and is supposed to continue the install. This is where my MBP was freezing up and I couldn't understand why. Well it turns out that the MBP is attempting to boot from the SL disk (10.6.0), however this machine requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.3 so the boot was hanging. I ejected the retail version of OS X, input the Recovery disk I got with the MBP (which is 10.6.3) and the install continued as usual. Once installed I booted directly to the Mini's hard drive (TDM) via the MBP and ran Software Update to get to 10.6.8.
