Yea, that was nice, but not what I needed. I know how to parition a drive... What I need to know is how to INSTALL OS X and Classic to different partitions.
This seems to be an area everyone knows how to do, except me...
Help?

I think you're making more out of this than need be. < no insulting tone intended.
If you know how to partition the drive, then during the install process each partition will appear as an individual dive. Install X on the partition of your choosing, and 9.x on a different one. Although, I believe that X must be installed on a drive designated as the master drive on it's individual bus. What I did on my 8600 was to leave 9.2.2 on the 6gig scsi hard drive the computer was made with. Then I installed an ATI/133 pci card and off of this card I have 3 HD's installed. (With this card 4 HD's are possible). On One ribbon connector, I have a single 40 gig drive designated as master with OS 10.2.6. Off of the other ribbon connector are 2 HD's for photo storage designated as master & slave. I originally decided to install X on it's own drive because I wasn't sure if it was the thing to do, and if all failed, I figured I could just pull the drive, wipe it, and my beloved system 9 would remain as I remembered it, back on the other drive. After installing X and booting into X, opening 9 via "classic" mode should "bless" the 9 system ( correct me if I'm wrong on this one ).
