Ok. >I was able to boot to os9 on the MDD afterwards but the the result >is very unstable IF you were careful to do only "universal" "all mac" installations and updates of OS 9, then this would work fine. If you weren't then, what you have is a tailored installation - that won't run well on anything except a Pismo era system. IOW, unlike OS X, the classic OS was NOT a monolithic installation by default. >Are you saying that should just drag everything to the new drive, >system and all, or just the files >for the apps? Drag over only the apps and their related preferences. If the apps have fonts associated with them - be careful. Only grab those that you don't already have in OS X and even then, check them with Font Book to make sure they're usable. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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).
