No File Vault, not to worry. And I've been set up this way since 10.2.1 with no problems as a result. I have four drives and all are accessible from both operating systems. However Root files are either invisible in 9 or when visible are ghosted and not accesible to be opened or moved no matter how you try. I remember there being some deal made a while back about closing the os 9 back door to secure system stuff in X. And so it is, apparently. I don't dink with X system files from 9. I just want to get to files on my X desktop. Maybe I should set myself up as a user; that's the obvious solution. But last time I did that it seemed a bit unweildly to be two people on the same machine. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
