While my Dual 967 goes back to apple (bad motherboard), I have 
confirmed that I can keep the HD that was in it as long as I supply/install a 
drive that they can test with. I have a 4GB sacrificial Drive that I will toss 
OS9/X on.  

Since I will be without that ultra speedy machine for about a week, here is 
what i have.

9600 w/ PL g3400 upgrade, plenty of ram (500-750), xpostfacto allows me 
to boot one 4GB drive that has Jag on it, one 4 GB drive that has 9/1 on it - 
both internal.

Since I am in the process of finding a IDE card (may buy one fom OWC 
tonite) I still have a FireWire External that I'd like to toss my DUal 867 drive 
into since it has many essential files, mail, what have you and have it be 
bootable from the FW drive externally.  

Xpostfacto says it is not bootable
OSX on the internal drive says it is ok to boot from that FW drive, but then 
just dumps back into 9 on reboot.,
os 9 can see the drive

anybody got any ideas short of getting an IDE card for the PCI slots?  I am 
in DIGEST so i would LOVE to be CC'ed  ;-)
