Q: Upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow

I have an Intel IMac that I never bothered upgrading to Snow Lepoard.  I went to try the install today to be ready for mountain lion and I got the prompt "Drive not Journaled. Use Disk Utility".  Now, obviously it seems that I have to reformat the drive to move to this format, but I have two questions.  First, I think the only way to accomplish it is to boot with the Install CD, correct (and what is the command at startup).  Second, I've backed up the drive with the Apple Backup utility but just want to make sure that there won't be an issue because the data that was backed up came from an un-journaled format.

 

Any suggestions or help is really appreciated.

 

Thanks,
