I have a question about booting into OS 9. On my computer I have 2 internal 250 GB drives connected to an ATA/133 card, G4 533 mHz Dual, I have OS 10.4.10 on one drive and I knew I couldn't boot into OS 9 with the other internal drive at capacity 250 MB (232 actual). But what I am wondering is with my external 320 GB drive I tried to boot into OS 9.2.2 with one partition at 320 GB, but can I partition it to say 40 GB / 280 GB and install 9.2.2 onto the 40 GB and boot? Or is the drive just unrecognizable (boot wise) at 320 GB, wholely? Or in other words is the 128 GB limit, a partition limit or a drive limit? Thanks, I just would like input because I have 200 GB of stuff on the drive and don't want to do transfers...to test it out
