Dan, Long time since we've heard from you!
It sounds like you are using the Sonnet software for OSX. I know
nothing about it. What do the directions form Sonnet say about this?
"Startup Disk" control panel can not be used from within OS
9.x to boot into OSX . Also best to leave "Startup disk" alone in
OSX. As Ford/Bailey said use the option key to switch to OS 9.x when
booting or restarting works great. When using the option key when
booting on a New World Mac it gives you a screen to choose which OS
to boot into. With Old world machines it boots into OS 9.x with no
choices listed. From what I've read this should also work with the
Sonnet software. What does Sonnet give you to boot into OSX from OS
9.x? Will S
