Uninstall: how to get my partition back

[B. Charles Reynolds]

You could always mount the YDL disk in the drive (while running OS X) 
and use the pdisk utility.... I haven't used it. I suspect, however, 
that it will behave much like fdisk for the x86 world and try to format 
all of your partitions. :(
