I recently purchased an 80GB WD Hard Drive which I installed in a 300/G3 Mini
Tower. I have formatted the HD into 3 equal partitions. I plan to save the
first 1/3 for OS 10, I have installed OS 9.1 on the second third and plan to
instal Mandrake on the final third. I plan on removing this drive and taking it
North with me in the spring to install in my Purple 333 IMac G3.
My question is will I have any problems with this set up in my IMac?
You are going to have to reconsider your partition scheme. Both your G3 MiniTower and the 333 iMac are affected by the so-called "8 Gig Limitation".

Means that OS X must be installed on a volume (partition) contained within the first 8 Gigs of the drive.
