Yes it is here is roughly how my drive is partitioned

i have 6.5gb osx
1.5 gb os 9 (cus i dont use it that much and it was enough space for the os)

110gb partition for the apps and my files.

i had to make the osx partition small cus my imac cant boot off any partition that goes outside the first 8gb of the disc as its a rev d tray loader.

ill try that alt thing on next reboot
