since i can't really wait until zephyroth releases 10.5.2 Rev.1 i started to reorganize my HDDs a little. I now have a 200GB SATA HDD completely empty. The question is, should i add at least one partition and format it with FAT32 or is it better to leave it as it is right now? Which way is better to have a safe installation of 10.5.2?

thanks for your answer. I never tried to install an other osx86 on my main rig because i'm a little afraid about my hardware. I guess most parts won't work, at least some guy at insanelymac told me so a few weeks back. So it's the first time for my main machine. =)
Oh ... by the way, does 10.5.2 support my Bose Companion 5 USB-Speakers?

Leave it. Formating with a fat32 would just be a waste of time . Just you might have a little trouble with the installer reconizing the SATA but you should be fine do any other osx86 discs work for you?
