Can I use my existing disk partitions?

[Roy Smith]

I've got a 450 MHz G4 with a single 80 gig IDE drive that I've split into 4 
20-gig partitions.  I've got MacOS-8.6 on the first partition, some data on 
the 2nd, and the other two are empty.  I want to install YD-2.3 on the box. 
I've done RedHat/Intel installs, but this is my first attempt at Linux on a 
Mac.

It's not clear to me from reading the instructions if my current disk 
partitions are going to work, or if I need to repartition the drive.

Also, I don't have a CD-ROM burner, but I do have plenty of free disk 
space!  Do I really need to burn a install CD, or can I just put the CD 
image on a spare partition and install from that?
