Not yet, I'm still at 8.6. I've got a 9.1 install CD, and a friend of mine with a fast connection at work is going to get me the diverse installers for 9.2.1 and 9.2.2. Once I've upgraded the OS (Thank you, OS 9 Helper!), I'm looking to do the same with Eudora and a few other applications
I went thru this in April of last year, on my PM 7300! OS9Helper rocks! Used the ultra-paranoid method -- did full backups to JAZ disks at every step. That way if anything foo'd, I could just take a step back. Also did a custom all-mac type install; turned on all the stuff I thought I "might" need someday (never hurts to have it), and turned off all the (now outdated) MS crap, so I got a full clean installation.
For the most part, it went very smoothly! The only glitch was Sherlock's background indexing - hangs hangs hangs. Stupid program.
FWIW, - Dan.
