I borrowed another OS9 installation disc from a neighbor just for the heck of it. and could not boot using it either. It is exactly like mine (OS 9) so I suspect that Pismo will not boot on anything less than OS9.0.2 which is what it originally shipped with. Mine has Jaguar installed and I prefer to simply run it on OS 9 for the "snappiness" over Jaguar and realize of course I must install OS9.2 to run as Classic with Jaguar, something I now plan to do since I do have the OS9.2.2 installation disc that came with Jaguar anyway. Just an experiment as I thought plain old OS9 without all the built-in OS X functions and compatibility might save Pismo some effort and breathing room! Should have read the fine print before I grabbed the OS9 disc for the Pismo! I just don't like Jaguar all that much, at least for the laptop. Thanks for all the helpful suggestions and comment on my post however.
