For some reason since I have upgraded into 10.2.6, I can not boot into OS 9.2.2 or even a CD (tried 9.2.1 and a Jag CD). I have tried many many different ways for the last couple months and nothing has worked yet....
HELP???
Your pram and or nvram is screwed.
Try booting with apple + option + p+r, listen for a few chimes.
If that won't let the mac see a valid OS 9 boot disk then unplug your mac from the wall,
pull out your battery (and leave it out for an hour) and press your cuda (lttle red switch
on motherboard)switch.
You'll probably lose your ability to boot Jag after this. Reinstall. Apparently Xpostfacto
works best with 9.1. Lot's of people have both running .
Charles... thanks for the suggestions
BUT
I've done the battery pull/unplug overnight thing a couple times. No change. Remembers and boots into Jag.
Tried zapping the PRam a hundred times. Won't. For some reason it just freakin' won't. Ignores it and goes on.
Held the option key. Tries to boot from 9 for about 3-4 full minutes. Then reboots into X. I keep holding option when it reboots, and it just does it again.
I think my computer is possessed by Jaguar. Won't let go..... need an exorcist....
Any other suggestions.... please?
