From Leopard back to Tiger

I created a bootable clone last night, then installed Leopard on my 12" Powerbook (which has an overloaded 60 gb drive).

Now, having discovered what a disk space hog Leopard is, and not able to shell out for a new Mac just now, AND discovering my olde but good-enough Photoshop Elements 2.0/Photoshop 7.0 don't work anymore, I want to go back. (Maybe my Diskwarrior won't work either and that's an expensive replacement too)

I trawled the earliest posts on this forum and saw the one called Tiger back to Panther but I think it said something about using the original OSX disks. I do NOT have the original Tiger installation disk on me.

So, is the "nuclear" RESTORE merely a) boot from clone b) run SD and select 'backup all files, source = clone, target = Powerbook HD?

Oh yeah, pity this forum limits my username to 15 and not 16 characters!

I await your wisdom ... thank you ...
