I too was concerned about installing OS X onto my iMac. I have too many games that run only on OS 9. I also have three iMovies that I did not want to risk losing by installing OS X or by partitioning my hard-drive. My solution was to purchase a firewire external hard-drive. I have installed Jaguar on it and left my internal hard-drive alone, which has OS 9 on it. I can boot to either OS, works like a charm.
