You can run 9.X on a non-G3 machine.  The 9.2.1 won't install without 
OS9.0
(or 9.1?) previously installed on the HD.  Also, 9.2.1 wasn't desinged 
to
run on an older 9600, so you can't even boot up from the 9.2 CD; to 
get 9.2
installed on an older PCI Mac, use "OS9 helper"
If you haven't already found it, it is at OS9forever.com, a site that 
will help with more than just installing OS 9.2.x.

by the way, you can install OS 9.1 without the help of this patch.
