My G3/400 iMac's main hard drive has OS 9.2.2 and Tiger on it on
the same
partition - I mainly use OS 9.2.2. I ran Norton Disk Doctor v6.0.2
and it
corrupted the drive which nothing could fix. I even booted up with
the OSX
install disc and ran Disk Utility but no joy. Only when I'd
recovered the
"undo" file of Norton's using Data Rescue v4.3 could I get Norton
to apply
that file and restore my drive to the way it was before it messed
it up. It
now works fine.
So, a question... for routine maintenance of this "mixed-mode" hard
drive
should I:-
a) Forget Norton and run Apple's Disk First Aid under OS9?
b) Use the OSX Startup Disc and run Disk Utility under OSX?
c) Use another program like TechToolPro (OS9 or OSX?)
P.S: My external firewire disc only has OS9 on it so should THIS be
maintained under OS9 or OSX? Thanks.
