If I want to run both OS's do I partition a drive,install OSX into the partition and then use it as a second start up disk?
I'm using a Quicksilver G4 733 - does my firmware need upgrading? thanks in adv j -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

I beg to differ.
You are right that a double-boot system can be handy for quick-repairs. My experience is that mac OS 9 together with Mac OS X on the same HD - different volumes is not as stable as a lone version of either OS on a single volume. I'm not referring to operating system stability, Im referring to the info put on the hd itself. If the wrong/wright house-keeping info on your hd gets thrashed - you will loose both partitions.
