Oh well, guess I should be happy to spend a bunch more hours wiping and reinstalling everything now rather than later when I would lose critical data. Guess I was confused by all the past discussion regarding drive partitioning, OSX on the first partition, OS9 on the second etc. that I thought this would be the way to go. As I mentioned, OSX is a whole new animal for me so I'm sure there were aspects of these past discussions that went right over my head. I just wish I didn't have to go through all the reinstallation, upgrading and network/internet setup again. -makmac -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
