Hello, I dont have an external HD to back up by Time Machine, so I had the idea to create a 80GB partition and install the Mountain Lion in it, and thus pass my music, videos and images to this new partition. But my question is this, the Lion was installed in another old partition , there is a possibility I delete she and merge it with this new, thus forming a single partition as it was before, but with the Mountain Lion installed?
Sorry for my english. :p

If I am following you questions, you want to create a new partition and install ML to it, then import data to that new partition, then delete the old Lion partition, then expand the new ML partition to reclaim the available space that Lion occupied? If that is your question... yes that would work.
