I think that's a good setup. It keeps OS X and OS 9 on separate partitions, so if, for any reason, you need to re-install one or the other, you don't have to install both. Your data would also be safe. All in all, that's my preferred way of partitioning for both OS X and 9. -Laurent. -- =========================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************* Usual disclaimers apply ************************* C Programmer's Disease n.: The tendency of the undisciplined C programmer to set arbitrary but supposedly generous static limits on table sizes (defined, if you're lucky, by constants in header files) rather than taking the trouble to do proper dynamic storage allocation. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
