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.
Ok.
Classic: Boot from the OS 9 CD and install to any partition your heart desires. IN OSX Open the classic preference pane and choose the system folder to use as a Classic environment.
OSX.
You can sucessfully move the Users/ directory to another partition:

Definitely a worthwhile thing, especially on a system with the 8gb limit.
You can move the swapfiles to a different partition...but this is of limited utility, imo, unless you're hitting swap a lot.

Applications seems resistant to moving APple's upgrades recreate the direectory if it's been linked to another partition.
