Thanks.  I'm glad I'm not alone.

But first I have to repartition the drive - I can't even get the system to
boot from the OS 9 CD.  That's my problem - I can mount the YDL CD from OS 9
if I boot up with the OS 9 CD in the drive - it boots off the hard drive but
recognizes the CD.  Then I just drag the OS 9 CD to the trash, and insert
the YDL CD.

I need to reformat the drive, though, and to do so I need to boot from the
OS 9 CD.  Again, I've used the "press 'C' at startup" trick, and changed the
startup disk using the control panel.

Tim.
