Hi GaryN. Thanks for replying to my message.
I should have introduced myself to this website as I am new. I stumbled upon this website after doing a few google searches trying to find a solution to the MDD booting into OS 9 with no classic. I have been using Macs since the day my father brought home an original Mac (128) back in 1984. He worked in the computer industry and I was a very lucky recipient of experiencing computers from an early age back then.
Anyhow. Ever since these top of the line G4 towers came out I had always wanted one.
But to reply to you about my issue.
As I posted, I originally downloaded and burned to a cd, the disk image of the four (4) G4 MDD restore cd's that are linked from this site. I got as far as the installer asking me to insert a cd with a specific graphic design. I don't know if that is normal.
At that point I figured, what the heck, and saw a decent/low price for the exact same original cd's with the (from what I understand) correct PN/Media numbers.
I will list them here to see if I have them right:
691-4078-A (CD)
2Z691-4103-A (CD)
2Z691-3548-A (CD)
2Z691-3600-A (CD)
These four cd's are the disk images I used, and are the ones I bought on ebay a few days ago. I think they are correct. What do you think?
Also I should have clarified I am looking to either A) have one bootable OS 9.2.2 hard drive with no partition or B) have 2 partitions with bootable OS X and bootable OS 9.2.2
Hey thanks for respeponding.
