If you want them both on one disk, and working in Leopard, I expect that you'll need to manually rename the one you (re-)install first.

There is another option. It's ugly -- but if you need to keep both versions of iDVD around badly enough, it might be worth considering.

1. Delete all traces of iDVD from your main hard disk. Reinstall iDVD '08.
2. Get a spare hard disk or partition that is large enough to hold Leopard and iLife '06.
3. Erase it.
4. Install Leopard on it.
5. Install iLife '06 on it.
6. Install the patch for iLife '06 and Leopard.
