When I first tried to help myself via MM, I looked under partitioning and backing up and couldn't find what I needed. I finally looked under Hard drive and then found the partitioning section. That's what I quoted to you earlier. Anyway, I finally figured it out, so thanks again for your input.
Check MM's Index under 'partitioning', specifically 'installing Mac OS X'.
[I'm using MM for Lion, but most of the MMs only adjust as needed for the MM version.]
