A fix for the "Open With:Not Applicable" error
Authored by: gourls on Aug 24, '04 04:20:37PM

You can boot from OS 9 if you have a restore CD. I don't know if the CD would help you on X, though. My iMac won't boot from OS 9 unless there's a restore CD. How did you do it?

Not quite sure what the rest of your comment meant, but you cannot boot OS 9 in any fashion from recent Mac's (anything 2003 onward, I believe). Classic under OS X, yes; OS 9 booting itself, no.

Oh........well, my machine runs X, but it's from 1998 or so. I figured that I can boot OS 9 if I turn the extensions off, but what fun is that? Besides, I don't use it anymore. I'll take your word for it. :)
