I got the new HD in the 800mhtz Imac, but the guy that installed it said that he partitioned it for the OS. I have never heard of having to do this on a Mac. I have always just hit the "Go" button and put it on there. Will it cause any problems if it is truly partitioned?

I don' t know what happened but my imac won't boot. I am running Tiger with all the updates so that should put it at 10.4.11? I think. When it started going strange I got it to boot and changed the startup disk to the Tiger disk to do a permissions repair. that is when I got the kernel panic...
