So, most probably 192 GB drive size limit for OS9 was the culprit.

Since your LaCie is bus powered, you should take a look at this topic: http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?topic=6800.0

laulandn, so the old Lacie FW Rugged triple interface boots OS9? That is good to know.

Is it this one? See attached pdf.

That red one? I definitely have one, but it will take months to dig it out. It is in storage container that I rent with all my other old Mac audio gear.

wow @laulandn, thanks for the post, and the offer of more research.

Even though I wrote earlier that I didn't think the hitachi laptop drive in this thing was the issue, i swapped it out with a 128GB SSD, which I had previously cloned from my mac mini over usb (most likely in 10.4.11, i don't remember exactly).

Anyway, it now boots from the firewire drive, at least into the 9.2.2 partition. The 10.4 partition tries to boot but gets hung on the gray apple screen.

I'm going to reimage that partition and try again, but it looks like the hard disk was the issue, or an issue anyway... I will report back once i'm done with it.. TY again.

Update: it boots from 10.4 after imaging with CCC. Everything shows up in OF.  Imaged the Leopard install DVD, and that boots too... This is the primary reason I bought this thing, because my macs won't read DVD+R DL.

Now to chop this up into a few more partitions and do what I wanted to, to begin with.

Thanks everyone.
