Tiger needs to be installed for the Upgrade. To format and install: When you restart the computer, before you proceed with the installation, you can find Disk Utility in the Menu Bar at the top of the screen. Open Disk Utility to format the hard drive, or even augment the partitions to give Leopard a fresh space. Make sure you backup any data you want to keep before any of this, however. If you make a complete bootable backup of your system to an eternal, you can wipe the drive, install OS X Leopard, then use Migration Assistant to transfer all your old files from the backup on the external to Leopard. You can migrate Applications, and User Data. Hope this helps! Steve Luke,

I'm bidding on a ebay for just the Leopard DVD alone, which requires "Tiger to be installed". I have Tiger, but if I wanted to format my HD and just install Leopard, would that be possible? Your thoughts appreciated. Luke Hi,

So, everything should be where you left it. It is highly recommended you backup your files using SuperDuper! before you start any install process. Erase and Install Option will erase the disk and install OS X fresh, meaning all the Applications and Files will be erased and Leopard will be installed clean. Kel-
