John, I have the identical machine and 9.1 runs perfectly from the 1gb hard drive - occupies about 240mb the way I have it set up. I had a similar problem when trying to use the CD from my powwerbook on an old 6200 - that was an os 8.? disc though. I was led to believe at the time that the CD's can be made for specific machine groups, but whether that actually is the case I dont know. Both my pb and the 7600 now run os 9.1 from a cd purchased from an apple shop rather than "borrowed" from another machine.
