My OS 9.2.2 (Classic) wont start in OS X Panther...

Hello,

I have an up-to-date Panther installed in my iMac. After a regular shutdown, the next restart showed the following message:

"The classic Mac OS ROM is missing or damaged.
Classic requires this file. You need to reinstall Mac OS X to get a new copy of this file".

Can somebody help me solve this problem and get my classic running again. Because I updated my Panther with several updates that were available and if I reinstall OS X then I will have to spend a lot of time downloading several patches and downloads once again.

Help me please.

Thanks

Ramki

I have no idea. I'm sorry no ones awnsered you question.

I'm not really sure what to suggest other than the reinstallation that was recommended by the software.
