I Could Only 'Upgrade'...Lost Disk Space

[ncfcstar]

Hiya,

I received my UTD cd today, and had 14GB of hard disk space left before installation, I wanted to do an archive and install but the disc would only let me upgrade :s, now I have only 9GB of space left and I can not find this 'Previous System' folder that everyone goes on about?

Some help would be great!

when you were going through installation, did you select the customize button which shows the options for Archive and Install?

No I didn't notice this option, is it possible to go through again and Archive and Install, or can I reclaim the disk space anyway?

Anyone? I've lost over 5GB of disk space!

That's about the amount of disk space Leopard takes, nothing special about it.

No I understand that, but the Upgrade just took space away and did not remove any of Tiger...that is why I am concerned.
