You don't need to install both, but I would if I was you, I'd install 9.x first, and then OS X. Also don't forget that you have to install OS X onto a drive of less than 8GB or on a partition of less than 8GB in the first half of the drive. When I recently installed an ATA/66 card in my beige I forgot about that rule and put the OS X partition in the second half of a drive, and the result was no boot. > >I have been very happy with this computer.

You won't have any video accelaration in OS X until you update it to 10.1.5, that's when Apple finally started supporting the onboard video on the Beige's.
