[QUOTE="chscag, post: 932482, member: 46727"] The best way in my opinion... Is to purchase an external hard drive (they're inexpensive) and install Snow Leopard to it clean. Use your current backup to install all your apps to the SL drive or do a migrate. Then instead of having to partition your internal drive and dual booting, all you have to do is attach the external with SL and boot the machine from it. When the time comes to using SL on a permanent basis, just clone the external drive to the internal and you're in business. Then use the external as a Time Machine drive or for other backups. Regards. [/QUOTE]
