I sent this over the Memorial Day Holiday and didn't receive any answers,
I hope it got lost in the holiday so am resending.

I installed Panther on a brand new hard drive in my ibook G3 800mhz
computer. Classic was not installed. I put my 9.1 CD in the drive and ran
the installer and was told I already have system 9 installed (I do not).
I then tried to boot from the CD and install 9 - same thing happened.

I connected an external firewire drive to the computer, booted from the
9.2 partition and when I double clicked the installer from the 9.1 CD was
told I could not run the installer on the computer. Remember, I was
running the installer from the iBook which was booted up in 9.2.

Can anybody tell me what's going on?

BTW, I partitioned the new drive - three partitions - all of which are
Mac os extended and two of which are also journaled. The partition I want
to install 9 on is not journaled.

Thanks.

Harry
