Flux,
You would be surprised. I have not been able to install my system HD on my other computer. It gives me a message that is cryptic at best.
Something like: This program can not run on this computer. See documentation for further help.
Driving me nuts!
Dave

From eBay my first OS 9 disk was a Powerbook install disk that wants to see a G3 in the hardware configuration. Since my PCI Mac at that time was a 604 the installer of course balked.
Some listers suggested TomeView to extract all of the OS files for manual installation.
I was not at all confident of getting it right and it also sounded like a lot of work .
So I eventually got an iMac 9.1 install disk. Surprisingly this will install to everything it has been tried on.. Why it doenn't demand a G3 I don't know.
But am thankful. I love 9.1.
OWC sells these very reasonably. ( just a plug)
Tomeview is probably a free download if you want to go that route. -- Adrian
