Thanks, I will give that a try. I do not have the disks that came
with my iBook so I have not been able to get anything else to work.
I have tried zapping to PRAM four or five times in a row, going into
open firmware and reseting from there and that did not help. I will
give your idea a try and see what happens.
Thanks again,
Scott

I connected the iBook via Firewire target disk mode to my desktop
and copied the OS 9.1 system folder over to the iBook hard drive.
Then I updated the system on the iBook via Firewire to 9.2.1.
Works great! I do have my hard drive in 2 partitions though so I
don't know how this would
work installing OS 9 onto the same partition that OSX resides on
using this method.
I found info on the Apple site that OS 9.1 only installed on the
Dual USB iBook if you used
the iBook install disks provided with the machine. The first OS 9
retail system to support this model was 9.2.1.
Oh, your probably wondering why I went through the extra step. My
Audio software I use on my desktop does not seem to get along with
OS 9.2.1.

Dean,
I am having the same problem with my iBook. Could you please
explain what you did to get OS 9 on your iBook?
Thanks,

I've been trying to install OS 9.1 on my new to me dual USB

Buss Error when I start up from the 9.1 CD. This is the full
install disk, not
system specific.
Is there a version of 9.1 that will install on the iBook?
Thanks
