OS X with OS 9.2.2

Hi!

I've had three Macs (two iMacs and one G4 AGP P/Mac) all with the same problem. I install OS 9.1 and then update to 9.2.2 with ALL the current "software updates". Then I install OS X (10.2 or 10.3) and when I try to run classic I get an error message about files needing to be updated.

Whether or not I update the files, I get an error about invalid system folder, and then cannot run OS 9.2 from within OS X. I don't know what the heck I could be doing wrong!? All I want to do is install 9.2 for classic support but it keeps failing me!

Anyone have any ideas on how to remedy this problem?

can you boot into OS 9 on any of the machines?

how would i boot to OS 9 once OS X is installed?

In system preferences go to the Startup preference panel and select the OS you want to use to boot.
