Install macOS / OS X / Mac OS X for the first time to your device.(one for 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7) and you could also create one large partition for your software library/installers/updates. 200GB+ you could create multiple emergency boot partitions for different Macs you support e.g. If the storage device is really large e.g. 80GB+ create multiple partitions (the emergency boot partition only needs to be big enough to install/update macOS / OS X / Mac OS X and put your utilities on it so 30-40GB should be adequate). NOTE: If the device has a large storage capacity e.g. Setting Up An Emergency Boot Drive NOTE: External USB hard disks/sticks/flash drives and/or SD Card boot drives only work on Intel Macs. If you cannot install 10.6/10.7 to the external device install it to the local hard disk in the computer and then clone the install to the external device. Then use an Intel Mac to install 10.6 and/or 10.7 as required. Then install PowerPC operating systems (10.3, 10.4 and/or 10.5) as required using a PowerPC computer. If you are going to create a drive with multiple boot partitions for both PowerPC and Intel based Macs use Apple Partition Map.For very old PowerPC systems (G3, G4 667MHz or slower) create a Mac OS X 10.3.9 volume on an Apple Partition Map storage device.For modern PowerPC systems (G4 1GHz or higher / G5) create a Mac OS X 10.5.8 volume on an Apple Partition Map storage device.
