Wallstreet does not run OS X natively so you need to install XPOSTFACTO from OS 9 and install OS X from an install disc within Xpostfacto. Wallstreet runs Jaguar and Panther fine with Xpostfacto but someone else will need to verify if Tiger works on it. You can also do all this from your Titanium then swap the drive back in. In doing this type of swap I found some machines will also reject it and show the disc and ? mark and the way to fix that is put an OS 9 disc in, boot from OS 9 then go to the Xpostfacto icon and reboot from there.
You can pop in an OS 9 boot disc and boot from that, install Xpostfacto and see if it works, instead of starting over again.
