I have been away from the MAC as a systems admin for 5 or 6 years now. I just bought a used G3 off e-bay to help learn the OS X.
I have been a Unix SGI system admin for the last five years and a WIN 2K system admin for the last year and a half. Will the SGI Unix help with OS X? I have read in the past the way to set them up is with two hard drives or two partitions. One drive / partition for OS 9.22 and a second for OS X. I have two hard drives and I set my G3 up as above. Is this the best or recommended way to set the system up correctly? I can boot into OS X or OS 9.22. I can boot OS X and open an OS 9.22 file which opens a shell running OS 9.22 (classic mode) to run the file or application. Is there any advantages to running the OS 9.22 files booted up in 9.22 not through the shell (classic mode)? Are there any limitations to the classic mode -vs- the native 9.22 boot? Any advice or other recomendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Steve -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
