Unless you want to go with OS X only, and don't need Classic, yes, you need
to upgrade to 9.2.2. With your OS X CD will come a full 9.2 CD. Just upgrade
your 8.6 installation. BTW, if you haven't thought about that already, I
would suggest you think about possibly making partitions out of your drive.
At least one partition for OS X and one separate partition for OS 9. It's
much easier to wipe the entire partition when you need to re-install the OS,
for any reason that might force you to do so. You're obviously not required
to do this, and many people are running OS X from the same partition than
their OS 9 installation...
