IIRC, you take the Finder file out of the OS 9's System Folder, place it on the Desktop, then close the System Folder window, and Drag the Finder file onto the System Folder folder icon, when it changes color, drop it so it goes inside. I think that can be done when booted into the OS 9 Install CD ... its been a long time ... may be better to get someone else's advice ... Wouldn't hurt to try it though.
