Just confirming, since I am coming late to his thread, but you're sure  
that you reformatted the drive with the correct partition map? Since  
Intel machines were introduced, its now possible to accidentally use  
the "wrong" partition map. If you do, an install of MacOS will go fine  
but it will never boot, even if you're copying a bootable image from  
another disk.
