I have just bought an 800MHz eMac, the CD only model,
for my kids to have as their games machine.
However, 99% of all their games are OS 8/9 and I didn't
get any OS CDs with the machine (where does everyone's
system CDs go ?!?).
I have tried all of my OS 9.2.2 backup CDs I have kept,
(the eMac 800MHz CD can boot OS 9.2.2 according to LEM),
and it boots fine of a couple but the system won't install as
it is not suitable for this model.
Apple will sell you an OS 9 CD that works properly.
Or you could do a univeral install of OS 9.2.2 on another machine,
then copy it over.
