I had some confusion as to what folks were talking about with loading a
os9 and os 10.4 on the same partition. I missed that the thread i
responded to might have been with just problems with running os9 under
tiger to run hc running 9to5 reports. I thought it was just problems
running classic from the part of the thread i read and responded to.
Are you concerned with os9 compatibility in general or just with hc and
9to5 reports. My old hc app does not use 9to5 reports, but lots of qt
and specialty graphics calls as well as reads and writes files to the
hard drive.
I have only used the 10.3 and 10.4 with os9 on the same partition to
run the os9 in classic mode, since the computers it they are loaded on
are only machines that can run osx.
I am just in the process today of suping up an old mac to donate and
loading 10.3 and 922 on it. it can run 9 so i will see if it can flip
between them fine. this was the standard feature of osx and 9 on older
machines that still had 9 bootablity in their roms. i know i had no
problem switching between running 10.1 with 9 on the same partition on
my old titanium as well as running the 9 as classic under 10.1 (but it
was the crude days of classic).
sorry if there was confusion on this. i just got spooked when i saw the
thread since i had just run off 1000 cds of a decade old multimedia
cdrom that uses an app i developed in hc and was worried there would be
a problem with tiger (figured murphy and all). amazing that a decade
old app still works! trying to make the vb pc version work takes some
guts in installing a v2 of quicktime over your nice new quicktime you
need for xp or 2000 just to get one dll installed! not for the faint
hearted...
yell if you have more questions and i can try and clear the air more
then send a clarification to the list.

Jeff,
Thanks for this update. Good to know.
Is it possible to run OS 9 and OS X simultaneously as with 10.2 (? &
10.3)?
