My guess, and it is just an educated guess, is no. For the installer to 
work, it has to boot up itself. I think it's like a mini-Linux-kernal boot. 
The YDL installer doesn't run on Mac OS.

With only Mac OS 9 or X running on the machine, I don't know how you would 
set the startup disk to a partition that had no Mac OS system folder.
