I currently have OS 10.2.8 running on my 8600 with a NewerTech G3/300 upgrade. I recently bought a 18 GB drive that I plan to install and use as my start up disk. So, I will be starting with a fresh install of X and I was hoping to get some advice on the best way to do it.
I don't have a 9.1 installation CD, so I will copy my 9.1 system folder over to the new HD. Then, I plan on upgrading to 9.2.2 and then install X over that. Should X be on it's own partition, or does it need to be with 9.2.2? If partitioning is the way to go, what would be the best scheme?
Personally, I have OSX on a SCSI 18 GB hard drive itself and OS 9.2.2 on another separate drive (your existing drive?) in this 9600. If you insist on pulling the second drive and partitioning, depending on which OS you really will use more, make that the largest partition.
Do you have your existing drive partitioned? You may not want to touch your existing drive except to erase OSX and use it for space afterwards.....
