Hi, When installing 8.5, virtual memory is automatically configured (just like 9.x). If you need 8.6, then maybe attempt a partition. If not, 8.1 is best. Leave OS9 for the G3 series, and X for the G4. I did a Teoma search for "partition powerbook driver". You'll see what I mean, or not. Best George
