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.

On my personnal experience, having multiple systems (OS 8 or 9) on different partitions is a bit loony.
Never been able to boot correctly that way (if booting). Maybe that's why I have 3 hard drives in the G3  I know it can work, but I don't know if it's a quesiton of system, of mac or of drives. Maybe voodoo  So the best is to play as safely as possible on this. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
