Of course:

1. Boot up the computer.
2. Insert the OS X CD-ROM.
3. Depress the "C" key and keep it depressed.
4. Restart your PowerBook.
5. The TiBook will boot from the OS X CD-ROM.
6. The installer will automatically lanuch.
7. Quit the installer.
8. Launch the Disk Utility application.
9. Reformat the drive: If you want OS X only, two UFS (Posix/UNIX) partitions, one of ~1.0 gigabyte and one which fills the rest of the disk OR, if you need both OS 9 and OS X, three HFS+ (MacOS Extended) partitions, one of ~1.0 gigabyte and two others; make sure the OS X partition is at least 3 gigabytes. THE ~1.0 GIGABYTE PARTITION IS FOR OS X'S USE AS A DEDICATED SWAP PARTITION. You really, really want to have a dedicated swap partition. See this forum or this month's MacAddict (hard copy) magazine for instructions on how to tell OS X to use this partition as the swap file repostitory. If you don't do this, OS X will run just fine on one partition; you can always make this change later.
10. Reboot the PowerBook from the OS X CD-ROM as in steps 3 & 4 above.
11. Install OS X with the installer program.
12. Install OS 9, if desired, from the OS 9 CD-ROM.
13. Share and enjoy!

vparconfig

vparconfig(1M)															    vparconfig(1M)

NAME

       vparconfig - specify the partition mode policy, partition CLM policy, and partition ILM policy for the next system boot

SYNOPSIS

       [mode]]

       memtype size

DESCRIPTION

       The  command  sets  the EFI variable that determines the partition mode on Itanium-based systems and then automatically reboots the system.
       The partition mode policy can be vPars or nPars.

       In addition, the command sets the partition ILM policy EFI variable (for InterLeaved Memory) and the partition CLM policy EFI variable (for
       Cell  Local Memory).  However, the reboot does not happen automatically.  The partition ILM policy or partition CLM policy change will only
       occur when you reboot the system using the command.

       The default behavior of the command specified without any options is to display the current settings of the partition mode policy, the par-
       tition ILM policy, and the partition CLM policy.

       This command is only available at the EFI shell if the vPars depot has been installed on the disk.

       This command is not supported on PA-RISC platforms.

   Options and Arguments
       recognizes the following command line options and arguments:
       Specifies the partition mode for the next system boot and then automatically reboots the system.  The valid values for mode are case-insen-
       sitive and The system reboots in the following ways:

	      o  If mode is then after reboot, the system will be in vPars mode.

		 vPars mode allows you to boot the vPars Monitor and virtual partitions in the next nPartition boot.

	      o  If mode is then after reboot, the system will be in nPars mode.

		 In nPars mode you cannot boot the vPars Monitor or virtual partitions.  However, you can boot HP-UX  as  a  standalone  operating
		 system.

	      o  If is specified with no arguments, then the system reboots with the existing mode.

       memtype size
	      Specifies  the  desired granularity of Cell Local Memory (CLM) or InterLeaved Memory (ILM) to be set in the appropriate EFI variable
	      for the next reboot.

	      memtype is either or

	      size specifies the desired granularity in megabytes corresponding to memtype.  Only a decimal value is allowed to specify the  gran-
	      ule size.

       Displays command line options and arguments.

EXAMPLES

       Reboot the system to mode.

       Reboot the system to mode.

       Set the ILM granularity to 128 MB.

       Set the CLM granularity to 128 MB.
