So, the MDD seems to be pretty functional at this point with 9.2.2. I'm rather happy at solving these two issues, as this has been weighing in the back of mind for two years as one of the projects I should get to some day before the computer goes out of service, although honestly, my partner, Diane, never boots into Classic, so I'm not sure why I care that much.
I actually write code for classic Mac OS, and some days *I'm* not sure why. :-)
There are two issues left that I am aware of: 1) How do I get the %^#$%#$ DVD drive open? The keyboard function keys don't work in OS 9.2.2 and the keyboard shortcut for "Eject" only works if there is already a disk in the drive.
The Eject Strip control strip item does this. I have version 1.1 on my G4 iMac.
Judging from its inconsistent icon placement on my system, it appears to require separate installation than the rest of Mac OS. It's part of "Eject Extras 1.1". I don't remember exactly where it came from, but it's on the iMac system CDs somewhere. I'd guess it just lives in a folder on the CD and you have to manually copy it.
