OK I'm finally going to do it...I know I'm a late joiner here, but it's time for me to jump to OS X.

I have a 400MHz Pismo, 768MB, 40g currently running 9.2.2.

Should I partition my drive when I install 10.2? What are the pros and cons?

Also any other hints for the installation process would be greatly appreciated.



Are you a hard core OS 9 user?

I thot I was until I OSX'ed. Partitioned my first 18 gig into 9 and 9. Wiped that and used 18 on OSX and a 4 on another drive. The more I used/liked X, the more room I needed for all the OSX apps.

As you have only one drive option in the Pismo, I would say 'go for it.' Make the first partition larger for OSX. Depending on you OS 9 usage (which will decrease... trust me!) give 9 about 2 - 3 gig. I only give mine 1 GB now!

Some like to have a separate (third?) partition for storage or possibly music.... it all depends on YOU.
