I've tried both things you mention. Selecting the startup drive as the one containing OS9 brings up the Happy Mac for a moment, then the computer resets itself, then starts up into OS X. Holding down the Option key seems to do absolutely nothing with this machine.
Have you tried inserting the OS 9 CD, starting up from *that* (by holding down the C key, or selecting the CD as startup disk), then using the control panel on that system to select the OS9 drive you actually want?This was the one and only way I could get my WallStreet (running Panther, which was unsupported though it installed fine with XPostFacto) to reboot into OS9.
