Depending on what Imac it is, Fritz I think it's probably me that is missing some thing. I wanted to put OS9 on this Imac There is an Imac firmware update on the OS9 CD but when I tried to install it the message cannot install to a locked drive came up. After reading Dan's reply I am assuming that 8.6 will load and I will then be able to run the firmware update by copying it from the CD to the hard drive. I have 8.5 installer and 8.6 update does this seem about right? I wanted to be sure of my ground before asking my friend to make another trip of 40 miles to see me again.
What I did find interesting was that he had managed to load OSX and get that to run Thanks for the help John -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
