Hi, Al -

I have OS 9.2.1 and OS 10.1 on my G4 tower, and just recently purchased
Jaguar to update the OS 10.1. I don't want to touch the OS 9, though, as it's
my main system, needed for everyday work. Is there a problem here I'm
missing? (I do have everything backed up on CDs, I just don't want to fix
what ain't broke or even change what ain't broke!)

I have no clue whether I have one or two partitions as the computer came
with the OSes installed already. How can I check if my hard drive is
partitioned?
