A few thoughts.  First of all, you have OS 9 on this machine, why not
use SCSI disk mode?  This would allow you to make your powerbook into 
a
large external hard drive from which you could then back your stuff
off.

Can't use SCSI disk mode on a driver equal to or greater than 4GB.
Only on certain models. This problem was discovered and fixed when 
Apple moved to > 4GB drives, which IIRC happened with the Wall Street 
or the original G3 Powerbook. There was a Technical note on it, I now, 
I read it, I just can't find it right now.
