asherman13 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I have a few questions: 1) I'm using Transmission, and my torrent is downloading to a folder on my desktop. How do I get it to become a .dmg? 2) Could somebody make a guide on how to install the preview with an obviously single-layer drive 1.83Ghz MBP? 3) If I use Boot Camp to partition, can I keep my 10.4 and XP partitions intact while creating a third partition for 10.5? 4) If I use Boot Camp to partition, how should I go about formatting the partition to HFS+? Should I use my Tiger reinstall disk that came with the MBP? Thanks for all your help, and I'm sorry if these questions have already been answered, but I wasn't able to find them quite as I had hoped.... Thanks again!

mark. Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I haven't finished downloading it, either. 1 Use UnRarX to make it into a .dmg, I think. 2 In this thread there are different methods of installing without a DVD. Do you have an iPod, or some sort of external drive? If not you can just partition with BootCamp, etc. 3 No, BootCamp only lets you make one partition at a time, so it won't be able to make another for Leopard, you will either have to install on an external, delete XP, or delete Tiger. 4 Yeah, I think you just make the partition in BootCamp, restart with the DVD (that came with the MBP) and then reformat it for Mac OS. I think most of those are right, hopefully someone will correct me if I am wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asherman13 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Here I saw that installing Leopard onto your normal Tiger install lets you back up everything before you install. Should I just do that rather than repartition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
