cactusjack901 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I think I wanna take the Leopard plunge, but I dunno if I can make a small 8 GB (or around there) partition on my external HD (or 5g iPod) and install Lepard on it, can this be done, can someone give me instructions, all I have for partitioning is Disk Utility, and is it worthwhile Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54920-partitioned-ppc-g4-with-leopard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelelliott394 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 i did it with an earlier build of leopard on my main hard drive. i had to back everything up though, create 2 partitions, install leopard to one and tiger to the other. you can however use non-destructive partitioning using 'ipartition' but you have to purchase it and it's pretty difficult to find a cracked copy or a serial for it.

Virtualball Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I wouldn't recommend installing on your iPod, that is a sure fire way to destroy it's HDD. And you can't do that to it when it has awesome Linux on it.

nigelelliott394 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 it'd be better and more efficient on the main HD i'd say Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54920-partitioned-ppc-g4-with-leopard/#findComment-392902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
