Hi all I am a new member. Was briefly a subscriber previously until e-mail address changed.
I have tried unsuccessfully to install OS 9 on my S900. Do I need to use Apple Drive set-up rather than HardDrive Toolkit as listed below??? I have tried alot of strategies to boot from the OS 9 CD (except for formatting my drives with Apple Drive set-up).A freeze occurs shortly after the "little guy" appears on the screen. Even if I do an improper installation (not booted from the CD), start up freezes at the same point. I have the factory installed Matsushita drive which I understand is really Apple approved or whatever. Please make suggestions/recommendations before I attempt to change my disk drivers.
