I cannot get Classic to boot on my 8500 with OSX. Anyone have an idea?
Of course I can boot directly into OS 9.2.1, but not into Classic when I
am in OSX.
I may not be understanding what you are saying here, but "Classic" is not a bootable partition. If you have OS X and OS 9 installed, you can boot into either of those using the startup disc preference. "Classic" is used only by OS X to run legacy software when you are in OS X. You cannot boot into "Classic" itself. You need a full version of a complete OS 9 system to boot into 9.
Think of "Classic" as analogous to VPC. It lets you run legacy programs on OS X without actually having a legacy OS.
