How to boot up os x???

[Joshua123454321]

Hi,
I am new to Ubuntu (I installed it on my macbook 5 hours ago) and would like to go back to OS X temporarily, however I can't boot up snow leopard. Can you please tell me how?

Thanks in advance,
Joshua

Hi,

A quick Google search revealed the following:
Hold down the "Option" key on the Macbook keyboard before the "Apple logo" on the gray screen appears. Continue holding it until you see images of two "hard drives" on the screen.

I already tried that, only one hard drive appears.

I have it backed up(on a six year old hard drive) and still have my original software dvds.

I am using a windows computer, so if this is a dumb thought, then please ignore this. Grub should have been installed on your Mac, allowing you to choose your OS before it boots. I am guessing you don't have Grub... Please try this tut I found on the web to get Grub. http://www.av8n.com/computer/htm/grub-reinstall.htm
