Mac OS X 10.0 thru 10.4 are explicitly designed to run WITH Mac OS 9 *on the same disk volume*. Yes, you can put them on separate volumes. But they run just fine on the same. >And there has been the advice (by Apple) firstly to install 9, >update anything (as QT), >and then install X. Initialize the drive, to contain both drivers. Install OS 9 and its updates. Update the firmware. Install OS X. is the preferred method. But it really doesn't matter - you can slap OS 9 onto a disk anytime. If you want to boot from it (not just use it as Classic Mode) then you need to make sure the driver was put on the disk when it was initialized. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
