[QUOTE="gsahli, post: 1645575, member: 182015"] Just to confirm - you plan to run those apps in Classic mode within OS X - not boot into OS 9? There's a difference, especially that you need to "install OS 9 disk drivers" before installing OS X on a new hard drive that will also boot OS 9. This is done before installing - I'm not sure a disk image will transfer that, too. Otherwise, if you just want to use Classic, then just copying the "System Folder" (with a 9 in the folder icon) over to the new OS X drive is the easiest way to enable Classic mode. And of course the OS X version has to be 10.4 or older. If I didn't answer your question, ask again (with all the details). (just to clarify my terminology - OS 9 is different than Classic, which is OS 9 emulation within OS X) [/QUOTE]
