Linux Repartioning

I am doing an install of yellow dog on a Mac Laptop. It already has the entie Mac hd formatted for Mac system. Is there anyway I can repartion it for the Linux partitions without loosing my data and having to reinstall MacOS?
 
Might want to change the title to Mac Repartitioning. I don't know about this at all, never heard of a Mac version of partition magic or anything similer. Might need to go to a Mac forum.
 
They still make Macs? j/k

I don't know anything about macs or their partitioning, but maybe you can use ghost to make an image which can later be applied if you'd like to return to a Mac OS... i'm not sure if ghost does Mac, I don't see why it wouldn't...
 
I have a disk that I use that boots to Linux, and will let me create partitions of just about any file system known to man, but it won't repartition existing partitions w/out destroying the data. Sorry. There's prolly a utility to do it, just like there's fips for DOS, but I don't know what it would be.
