Getting to OS 9 from OS X.
When you go to System Pref / Classic for the first time after install, you will
get a request asking to make some changes to OS 9. What is going on here is
that an ENABLER is installed and if you now look at the OS 9 system folder you
will see a very faint big X on
I had 3 OS 9 systems and only the first one that the system found was changed
and the faint big X added to its folder.
This folder MUST be kept or you will not be able to get to OS 9 from OS X.
Not exactly true
You must have at least 1 OS 9 System Folder in your Mac, for it to
have
I have OS X 10.2 on a G4 Sawtooth but no OS 9 on it. Can I install OS 9 on it?
I have OS 9 discs from my iMac that I moved many documents and programs from to
the G4. I also have an external hard drive hooked up to the G$ that has OS 9 on
it, and so far the G$ has been using that to run OS 9
You can install OS 9 on the Sawtooth. It's best to use a separate
partition from OS X or a separate drive
There's a good chance the iMac OS 9 disks won't work, though,
especially if the iMac is older than your G4.
