I have the same machine, except with a much larger retrofit HD and more RAM.

My thoughts

* 2 x 2Gb partitions will be gobbled up VERY quickly. I suspect after 
a 10.1.5 install is done it wouldn't let you take it to 10.2 based on 
the space left
* 10.1.5 on a Bronze (compared to Jaguar) is slow and bloody awful
* 10.2.x is much better / faster / reliable
* The Lombard (333 & 400) video cards are not officially supported 
for the OS X Quartz engine so graphics are quite sluggish - 
especially under 10.1.5 - there is a well documented hack out there 
for enabling support but there are still several bugs with it
* I think 256Mb of RAM for running OS X / Classic / Photoshop is 
going to be a little thin...

I still boot in 9 for my "big" projects.

YMMV - Cheers, Antony.
