I'm going to take the plunge and upgrade the OS on my Wallstreet. It's family number M4753, 266 Mhz, 320 Mb RAM, 4 Gb HD (1.9 Gb free). Ok, so I'm a little behind the curve, I'm going from 8.6 to 9.1. I want to use the latest airport drivers with my Lucent Wavelan card (thanks to the list for the recommendation) and the latest drivers want 9.04 or better.
First question: I have OS 9.0.4 on CD. I also have downloaded the updates to 9.1, 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 Is there any preference between the different flavours of OS 9? The computer is used for e-mail and text editing, graphic converter is as close as I come to being a power user. Second question: I've always like the idea of separate partitions for the OS and for data so that you could format the OS partition and do a clean install without touching your data. Does this make sense with my wallstreet? If yes how do I do it?
