That machine didn't ship with OS X. I have not tried to go backwards on a Pismo before. I would backup the machine, format the drive. Install OS 9. Update it to OS 9.2.2, and then install OS X.2. In fact...I just picked up a Pismo for my Mom and Dad and that is exactly the way I am going to set the machine up. -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
