Broke my computer!?!?
Authored by: brodie on May 10, '01 03:07:42PM

i installed it last night too, everything ran fine until i started from 9.1 and boom!! "the Mac HD disk is not readable , do you want to initialise it?" jeez, lucky i had norton to clean it up, around 11 major errors and several dozen minor ones. im still not sure if its smooth. what the hell happened? what if 9.1 had only been on that partition and i didn't have Norton? i'd be up the creek...

Broke my computer!?!? me too

10.0.3 appears to have messed up my Classic system too. No problems until tried to boot from the Classic 9.1 system on my OS X partition - no fonts, no extensions or control panels, when shutdown it warned there was no longer a valid System folder; on rebooting into OS X, the Classic System Preference no longer recognised the system 9 on the OS X partition. Fortunately I keep a separate OS 9 partition (which I try to keep immune from the OS X side, but how I wish OS X wouldn't want to keep launching Classic from that partition every now and then!)
