Need a hint: How does one restore MacOS after trying Ubuntu? I think it has something to do with HFS vs ext3, or boot tracks, but could use details.

I saw the article "Post-Linux Mac OS X Install?" of 2005-11, but it is for those that want both Ubuntu and MacOS loaded; we want just MacOS (on this computer - Ubuntu still interests us).

Thanks!

You don't have to remove Ubuntu, you can just reinstall MacOS X over Ubuntu.

However, if you wanted to expand a current MacOS X installation to use a partition that you had previously used for Ubuntu, lets just say you'd be better off just reinstalling MacOS X on the whole drive. (I'm not a Mac person though, so if you get better advice, by all means follow it)
