someone hacked the firmware

The transition from OS 9 to OS X happened about the same time that
Toast moved from Adaptec to Roxio. Toast 5 was the carbon version
then that worked natively in both OS 9 OS X. Toast caved to Apple
Getting to OS 9 from OS X.
When you go to System Pref / Classic for the first time after install, you will
get a request asking to make some changes to OS 9. What is going on here is
that an ENABLER is installed and if you now look at the OS 9 system folder you
will see a very faint big X
I had 3 OS 9 systems and only the first one that the system found was changed
and the faint big X added to its folder.
This folder MUST be kept or you will not be able to get to OS 9 from OS X.
Not exactly true
You must have at least 1 OS 9 System Folder in your Mac, for it to
have
I have OS X 10.2 on a G4 Sawtooth but no OS 9 on it. Can I install OS 9 on it?
I have OS 9 discs from my iMac that I moved many documents and programs from to
the G4. I also have an external hard drive hooked up to the G$ that has OS 9 on
it, and so far the G$ has been using that to run OS 9
You can install OS 9 on the Sawtooth. It's best to use a separate
partition from OS X or a separate drive
There's a good chance the iMac OS 9 disks won't work, though,
especially if the iMac is older than your G4.

I don't even have Conflict Catcher, believe it or not.
:-) But I do have some good news --
I can boot my G4 in OS 9 now and it doesn't freeze! The Open Firmware
trick worked. It was a little strange when
to
use. I'll also mention that a suggestion I got to try with an 'older' OS
9 install CD and upgrade to 9.2.2 with the Apple updates, all of which I
do have, would have also worked for this machine, according to what I saw
on Apple's site, but hey, why bother with a 9.1 or 9.2.1 install plus
works as well.
There's a GUI equivalent in OS 9 also. You drag the System file
Finder file out of the System Folder to unbless, and drag them back in
to bless. You can tell the folder is unblessed because the icon
changes to one without the smiley face on it. When you bless it the

I believe Yersinia is correct that an unblessed OS 9 folder can be

don't believe either MacOS or OS X allows for two blessed Systems
