I understand your desire not to repartiion.  You may be able to get away
with manually taking out the untitled partition and creating a bootstrap,
root, swap, and /usr or /home and then proceed with the install.  If I
understand your setup correctly, MacOS is as the end of the drive, so I
would not use the installer partitioning tool to do this but do it either
from YDL, the rescue image or MacOS.  If you need assistance in doing this
- holler, either on the list or directly.  I'm on ICQ 18063833 if you want
to go at it interactively.
