Does the same go for earlier OS'? I might try a dual boot with 8.5.1 or 9.1 on a tray-loading iMac. I would like the Mac OS to be default, so when my elderly mother uses the computer for her e-mail she is not confused by boot options. If I could get the bootloader to appear by holding down the option key, otherwise defaulting to Mac, that would be ideal. To set this up, I would partition the drive, install YDL, *then* re-install the Mac OS, correct? Or does it matter which I install first?
