You cannot upgrade OS 9 to OS X, but you can have both system installed, which happens when you install OS X on a Mac that already had OS 9 installed. If I remember well, you need to go to the Apple menu and open the control panel. In there you should find "Startup disk". There you can set the OS X folder as boot folder, and at the next reboot you are in OS X. |

1. How do I find out what OS do I have? 2. Under my System Preferrence->System->Startup Disk, there are two items only: Mac OS X 10.2.8 on Macintosh HD, Network startup. Does it mean I only have OS X? sorry if it sounds rude, but I am not, just try to get the straight answer. |

but your system disk should be checked before your bother upgrading... cus if you have another OS on there higher than the one ur currently using.. no point in upgrading a lower os. |
