I'm new to Panther also, mainly on Unsupported machines & iBooks. There are problems like you describe with SCSI on Unsupported machines, so your situation with good SCSI & bad ATA seems backwards to my experience. My guess about the Finder problem is that you've just dragged & dropped OS 9 files & folders to copy them, rather than using Carbon Copy Cloner to transfer them. I'm new to this also, so I may be totally wrong, but my understanding is that OS 9 files & folders have a resource fork that is not present in OS X. Thus, if you simply copy an OS 9 file or folder using OS X you'll loose the resource fork, and the file or folder will be corrupted? Perhaps others that know more about this can correct me if I'm wrong. Thank goodness I keep my OS X & OS 9 on separate drives and haven't had to fully understand this or deal with it yet.
