No, it is a firmware update, but I think that because it was released in 1999, OS 9 may have not been introduced yet, and the documentation was never updated. > - If it is really a firmware update, how can I install it since she only has > 9.2.2 and 10.1.5 ? I would try running it from 9.2.2. Truly boot into 9, don't just start 9 up from within X. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
