Hi Cara, From experience, I did a wipe and install with Leopard and then used time machine to pull a backup from wich to restore. This worked like a charm for me. I just chose the latest date and I got everything back. As a note, I did this after the install during the setup when you are offered choices of choosing to restore from another volume or from a time machine backup.
