John: If this is the case that's so much easier! When I first got a mac in February, it came with some warranty left. I was crashing and/or freezing in OS 9 a lot, so Applecare techs helped me do a low level reformatting and then helped me install OS X with Classic. The tech insisted that partitioning was the only safe way to go and he guided me through it on the phone. I can't remember how to do it anymore, but I'm thinking of trying to clean the hard drives on my iMacs and then install Jaguar. I think NOT partitioning will be less stressful to those who aren't really savvy. Woe to switchers who need to learn TWO OSes AND partition to boot!
