I have 10.5 on a FWHD but was thinking about putting it on a partition in my MBP so I could more easily take 10.4 and 10.5 with me. Anybody know if I can use the Bootcamp Assistant to avoid wiping the disk clean to repartition as if I was going to install Windows?

Yes it works, but bootcamp will refuse to make the partitions one again after you've finished.

 

I had to boot into vista install and format the partition back to ntfs before bootcamp would make my disk one partition.

 

I think there are command line programs that can be used to live split a drive which might be more flexible, but I have not idea how to use them :dev:
