Yes indeed

I have a 7600/ Sonnet G3 Crescendo 400/1MB update/ Rage Orion 128 PCI Video
card.

I could NEVER successfully install OSX using the Sonnet Installation
Software with any and all monitor combinations with the Rage Orion card
plugged in. That goes for the upgrade to OS 10.1. That also goes for the ATI
"patch"

The result of several e-mails to both Sonettech and ATI tech is that they"
know" about the kernel panic-on board video problem  and continue to "look
at it (?)". To my knowledge, looking at their web site postings , nothing
has happened and I bet nothing ever will with respect to unsupported mac
boxes.

Because of this, I have purged all OSX ( and OS 10.1 ) off my hard drive
partitions and have 100% returned to my trusty, fast and ferocious OS9.1
with my Rage Orion video card in place!!

Personally, I cannot see at this time the practical purpose of running OSX
on an unsupported mac since to use burners , scanners and most all
application software you have to boot up back to Classic, which is OS9.1
anyway !.
