Hi,

J=F6rg,
I suspect your problem might be  a lack of the OS=20
9 drivers on your hard drive. They are not=20
installed by default, and without them you can't=20
access that drive with a system running anything=20
below X. In Classic, X still handles the disk=20
access tasks.

Try booting from an OS 9 CD, and see if you can=20
access the hard drive. If not, that's probably=20
the cause. Sadly, the only solution is to erase=20
the drive and install the drivers (from the OS X=20
installer).

End of quote.

Dan,

I formatted the OS9-partition as HFS+ when I installed
Panther and it is seen as a possible startup disk when I
start from the original OS9 installer-CD.

Thank you anyway!

Jörg.
