Try selecting the startup drive, from Control Panels. Make sure you choose the correct volume that OS 9 is on. Otherwise, use the Option key, to bring up boot drive choices, as has been mentioned before.


Is there some particular point in the startup sequence that the option key should be pressed? I'm asking because I've *never* been able to make this trick work: the computer just boots into the same OS that was running before.

Best,

As I recall, you hold down the space bar during start-up and you will get a choice of drives that have a valid system folder.
