Moving YDL off iBook

[James Cass]

Roger -

I agree with Luiz.  Just boot off your MacOSX Install Disk 1, run Disk 
Utility and repartition as 1 partition ("journaled" is preferred).  
Then just do your MacOSX Install.  To save space, click on the 
"Customize" button during installation, and uncheck all the foreign 
language localization modules (unless you need them).  You'll save 
about 1.7GB of space!  Check to install "X11" (it's unchecked by 
default) if you want to use apps like "Open Office" etc that require 
X11.
