Thanks for both replies. Yes, the first thing I did was to format the
MDD's target drive with os9 drivers installed, then with the Pismo in
FW target mode, cloned the os9 partition with CC Cloner. I was able to
boot to os9 on the MDD afterwards but the the result is very unstable
and crashes, even with extensions off. I assumed that, since the os
was installed to run on a powerbook, it will never run properly on a
powermac...am I out to lunch here? Are you saying that should just
drag everything to the new drive, system and all, or just the files
for the apps?

Simon.
