well I cant get xpost to work
it says we are hanging here after first restart -:(

Basically as long as the ATA card is recognized in OS 9, it will
work with XPF/OSX. The only issue is that the OS X partition
will have to be the 1st one and at most 8GB in size. A good
list for these type of questions is the Unsupported OS X list
<http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html>.
I ran OS X 10.3.9 on my 9600/350 G3-500 on a paritioned 70 GB
drive, with 3 equal paritions, and had no problems- used the
original 4 GB drive as a back-up OS X boot drive.
As far as I've always heard the 8Gb limitation applies ONLY to the
built in IDE controller on the machines in question.
Actually, it was a problem with Apple's installer applying the same
limit to all IDE drives in OldWorld machines regardless of how they
were connected (built-in or PCI card). With XPF 4, Ryan has worked
around the problem for those drives attached using PCI IDE cards.
