[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1725170, member: 131855"] Ok. Now I get the confusion. The thread, as I understand it, is about creating a second partition. Even with one partition though the SL retail disc should boot any machine that can run SL. So here as I understand them are the options: 1. If you want to return the machine to SL [B]and[/B] have other software that originally came with the machine use the gray discs. They must be discs for the same model Mac. This essentially gets the machine back to factory defaults. 2. If the Mac supports SL and you don't care about the additional software use the SL retail discs. 3. If the drive or partition contains something newer than SL the installer won't let you complete the install unless you erase the drive/partition in question first. I'm sure someone in the brain trust will correct mi if I am wrong. [/QUOTE]
