OS9Helper and XPostFacto are two applications which are available from Other World Computing. OS9Helper is used to enable a model which is not on the 9.2 approved list run 9.2 (any version). As 9.2.1 is perhaps the most stable version of OS9, you will want to run this. 9.2.2 is best when you are also running OSX as it has additional help for best OSX compatibility. XPostFacto is used to enable a model which is not on the OS X approve list run OSX. 10.3.9 is probably the only one I would seriously consider running on a Kanga as its RAM is so limited (to 160 MB). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
