Ronald,
Just start like before. Put the install disc in and click
Install Mac OS X.
It will reboot. Choose language and when the
Welcome screen appears click
Continue. The next screen will be the
Select a Destination screen. Select your drive/volume to install to BUT! don't click continue, click
Options instead. That's were you take a different route from before. The next screen gives you three options to choose from.
1.
Upgrade Mac OS X
2.
Archive and Install with the option to "Preserve User and Network Settings"
3.
Erase and Install
Make your choice, click continue and continue on as before. The next screen should offer a customize button allowing you to choose which printer drivers, additional fonts and language translation you wish to install. Then install your OS. I got this info straight from the Leopard Install and Setup pdf which I got from
HERE. Just click the "Manuals" link.
Here's a more organized instruction.
Reinstalling Mac OS X
Under some circumstances, you may need to reinstall Mac OS X. You can reinstall Mac OS X while keeping your files and user settings intact.
To reinstall Mac OS X:
Step 1
Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
Step 2
Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select the destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk (in most cases, it will be the only one available).
Step 3
Click Options. If you want to save your existing files, users, and network settings, select “Archive and Install,” and then select “Preserve Users and Network Settings.” If you want to erase everything on your computer and reinstall Mac OS X, select “Erase and Install.” You can’t recover erased data.
Step 4
Click Continue.
Step 5
Click Customize to select which parts of Mac OS X you’d like to install, or click Install to perform a basic installation (recommended). Hope this helps.
