Quoting Sean Kennedy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Yes. The installer will ask where you want to install the OS, and let you know 
whether there's enough space to install it on the selected HD.

You'll get a disturbing looking dialogue box, immediately after one which 
states that device drivers are being updated, which states that the Apple 
drivers can't update the disk, and offer to let you quit the installation 
process, or continue. Choose continue, and the installation should proceed 
normally. 
 
> Anyone have any tips for how I'll go about this install when I get the disk?

If the PTP CDROM player doesn't boot from the OS9 install disk (by holding down 
the 'C' key at startup, or the simultaneous combination 
'Command-Option-Shift-delete'), then boot from the floppy, and,if both the HD 
and CD show up on the desktop, yer off and running. Installation will take 
about the same time as making a decent sandwich and cracking open a Mountain 
Dew.

Cheers...Michael
