rony,
check the KBase article for installing OS 9 as classic on your computer. However, you need to verify that your PMac will actually run OS 9 as a boot volume, vs. only as a classic system install for OS X support. What specific Pmac DP do you have? Check "About this Mac" and then "More Info". This will give you both product family and prodcut name. Based upon that you should be able to determine if your CPU supports OS 9 booting. If you have the original install/restore CDs, then you can install classic support and/or OS 9 from there. good luck. peace, deacon -------------------- |
