been working fine. Everything's set correctly.


almost sounds like you let the installer overwrite the FWD drivers, which
could cause problems with
certain "excluded" drives-do you remember which boxes you checked at the start
of the OS9.1 instal?
I had 8.6 on both disks and that worked ok. So I installed 9.1 on my 2nd
disk using a utility called Clean-Install Assistant that's supposed to keep
track of various system components I've added.

 One thing that might be a major change and help you
 is to reformat your hard disks with Apple's Disk Utility- which is on
 the OS 9 install disk. This will make your drive Apple friendly and you
 can stop using FWB HDTK.
I didn't know that I could use the Apple Disk Utility. When I install the
new system it automatically refused to update the drivers because they
weren't Apple.

Being naturally cautious about upgrades I wanted to keep 8.6 available on
one disk in case things didn't work smoothly with 9.1.  One thing that
occurred to me is that I haven't upgraded the driver on the 8.6 disk yet.
Maybe that's interfering somehow.

Anyhow, thanks for the help.

Reading your original post I believe you are saying that you are not allowed to *boot* from the 2nd disk where 9.1 is (not that it cannot be seen). Have you "blessed" the 9.1 system? If not, you might try simply moving Finder outside the 9.1 System folder, then moving it back into the folder.
