Looks like those machines shipped with 10.6.4, so if you have a retail installer that is 10.6, it won't work.
I wonder what version this disc that Apple still sells is: http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MC573Z...ow-leopard
If it's 10.6.7 or 10.6.8, it should work, but I think the originally retail installer stopped at 10.6.3?
For my own installs, I ended up creating a "universal" 10.6.7 USB installer from a MacBook Pro 10.6.7 specific disc http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?st...3175902871 . But if the disc Apple is selling is 10.6.7 or 10.6.8, I would just go that route.
