Hi Robert,
Well done! Glad you now have you system almost as you want it. To answer your
question below, I was under the impression you did a fresh install of Snow
Leopard OS X 10.6. If that is the case I wouldn't expect you to see mail boxes
when you open Mail.app.
Just to add another
You're right! Lion for every day it shall be. Once again,many thanks!

Partitioned the internal Drive (Mac OS Extended(Journaled).Installed Lion on
main System,Installed snow leopard on small partition and applicable soft ware.

Hi Robert,
Don't panic, I think you are in a reasonably good position.
I just want to confirm where you stand. The way I read it, you have the
following
1) A fully operational OS X 10.7 Lion install on your main hard drive
2) A backup of your old system on an external drive
3) A
Hi Robert,
Deleting your backup is probably a little bolder than I would have been, but
nevertheless you still have a booting system and all your data files, so you
are in good shape. :-)
The only problem to solve is to get yourself a bootable copy of Snow Leopard OS
X 10.6. How did you go
It was a fresh install from a DVD

OK Robert. Give me a bit of time to do some trials I will post back. Options
that spring to mind are running disk repair on the 10.6 partition from the 10.6
DVD. Or alternatively putting the iMac in target disk mode and affecting the
repair from a MacBook. Or perhaps even installing Snow
You could just try booting off the 10.6 DVD and then reinstall 10.6 onto the
10.6 partition you made.
Once reinstalled, you should then have the option of booting to the Lion
(10.7) or Snow Leopard (10.6) partitions.
It will only reinstall the operating system and keep everything else in
tact.

I'll just add to what Daniel said, that it would be wise to get a backup
(either Time Machine or external disk) before you do anything. And preferably
don't delete it. :-)

Hi Robert,
Just to add to what Ronda has said and to give you some other options. Assuming
you are migrating towards Lion on your iMac, you have a number of options to
run 10.6 Snow Leopard in an auxiliary role.
Here is a setup that I recently put in place for someone with an iMac. A large
I need to continue using Macromedia Freehand MX and Photoshop CS2 in my work as
I'm familiar with them but aware that OS Lion does not support them.
Is it possible to run 10.6.8 from an external Drive (and use Lion on My
computer Drive (iMac 27)? If so how does one select which OS to start up
