macbook-air

So. I tried partition my disk using Disk Utility for loading the operating system in the partition drive and installing it. But partition failed, and I could not do that.

I tried Remote OSX install from another computer, my MBA crashes with error Hold Power Button to shutdown

I dont have a super drive or 8 gigs hard disk. Could someone suggest me some way to install Snow Leopard OSX on my Macbook air ?

Thanks !
