I use Mac OS X on a tricked out PowerMac 7500 with XPostFacto (freeware; http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/XPostFacto/) and can tell you from experience, do not mix up your partitions! Keep your regular System Folder as it is and use a different partition to install OS X (must be within the first 8 gigs of the drive if I remember correctly). Within OS X, it will allow you to upgrade to Mac OS 9.2.2. This System will not be usable to boot with, etc., and is only good for running the Classic environment within OS X. If you mix the systems, it could cause trouble down the line. As long as your have the drive space, it works out great. OS X reminds me of all the fun I used to have with my Amiga 3000 and it's operating system. -- John -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
