i did it once at home on a beige G3 tower, and i had to reformat the
hard drive. i was able to do a clean install, but then certain items
would retain memory of elements of OS 9 and ask for them, stuffit for
example. i had to start over completely.
it is a case of anti-devolution, n'est-ce pas? bob
>I'm trying to install 8.5 (then to 8.6) disc on a 2400 that is running OS9.
