Re: OS9 installs

[Michael Valle]

I am trying to buy an OS9 install CD on eBay.  Anyone have any idea why 
the powerBook OS9 CD won't work or if there is any way to make it work?

You don't usually need machine-specific install CDs. I got a used copy 
of an
iBook OS 9.1 install disk and successfully installed it on my Starmax. 
I
then also used it to upgrade my daughter's 1st gen iMac from 8.6 to 
9.1, and
also on my Beige Power Mac. Don't tell Apple.  Later I did the
internet-download upgrade on my Beige to 9.2.2 and my daughter did the 
same
recently w/ the iMac.
