sorry for the apple question....
I installed mac os 9 on a second partition on the first drive,
and used os X's startup disk switcher to boot it. It works
fine. I have not been able to boot os x again. It is still
installed -- I see the icon for it and the files are there,
but the os9 'startup disk' control panel doesn't do anything.
How can I get back to OS X?
I want to put a hard drive in it for debian. I took it apart,
and did not see a place to put the second hard drive on the
first ide chain. It doesn't look like there is a place
to put it.
Does it need to go on the second ide chain ( which has a zip drive
and a cd drive)? What are the other options?
I see an old scsi port on the back -- db25. Can you boot from external
drives?
I plan to come to the next trilug meeting -- games. Can someone
volunteer to answer some mac questions for me?
The goal is to be setup a 'multi boot' system with os9 for the
kids, os x and debian for me to play with.
thanks
