Q: Error Message of disk not formatted when trying to upgrade to Lion

I am trying to upgrade to Lion and have received an error message stating "The disk in not formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).  Use disk utility to enable.

 

What exactly am I supposed to do in Disk Utility?

 

I opened it up and I wasn't sure if I am supposed to reformat? Repair? Partition?  Am I supposed to be reformatting as an Extended Mac OS?

 

How exactly do I do that?

 

Basically has anyone encountered this and what steps are needed to continue from this point?

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
