My Panther installation took 3.77 GB of an 8 GB partition on my 9500s
internal SCSI drive ... maybe your drive isn't big enough? Didn't you
say it was 4GB? Where is your OS 9?
I use 9.1 and not 9.2 ... and 10.2.8 ran fine on my PowerPC 8500 for a
year or more. It seemed to like the 9500 as well.
Is your internal SCSI chain terminated properly? OS X is sensitive to
this.
Hmmm ... does the 9600 have onboard cache? my 9500 has it soldered into
the motherboard ... I guess I luck out when I get to CPU Director, and
it seems to bypass the onboard cache ... wait a minute ... onboard
cache is good since you're using the original processor ... when you
upgrade, you'll have a different concern.
Just some ramblings about your dilemma ...

Other thoughts?
Well Jason then I'm afraid you did anything (something?) wrong during
the
installation.
My advise:
Boot from your OS 9 Install CD.
Wipe the HD and do a fresh install of 9.0/9.1.
Install OS9Helper and upgrade to 9.2.2
BEWARE: First read any "ReadMeFirst" before you do anything.
This to make a long story short!!
Install System Disk.
Install XPF AND first read the "RMF" again.
Done and followed all these: Install "Jaguar-base" now.
Use System Disk to boot in Jaguar.
Use now the ComboUpgrade 10.2.6 (IME: Don't use 10.2.8 on these uns.
Mac's!)
Reboot and repair permissions.
Hope all will be as wished by you now.
