Thanks for the replies to my questions about maintaining two operating
systems. When running OS9.1, I still get the message every so often...
"Something is wrong with (the partition on which I have OS9.1 installed).
Some information may have been lost". Has anyone else ever gotten this and
does anyone know what it means?

I have found that it is best in the long run to have copies of all the apps you run on the boot drive. Preference files for the apps will be written on the boot drive. It seems that sometimes the system will get confused about which preference file to use and which file to write to. It then will sometimes not find the info it excepts to in the file it is checking . So you then get the lost info message. I ran my machine like this for quit a while. First 8.6 & 9.04 then 9.1 and 9.2.2. It ended up really messing my disk info up. OSX 10.1 & 10.2 and now 10.2 and 10.3 show the apps on the other OSX disks when choosing an app to open a file with. Long time using like this has proven to be a bad idea for me. Disk Warrior can usually fix but I have ended up doing a new install to fix things. later Will S
