Configure Dual Boot on New dual 1.25??

I have a copy of OS 9.2.2 from my old mac. Is there a way I can configure a dual boot system on my new single boot system without reformatting my hard drives etc??

Depends on which revision of the dual 1.25 you have. If it didn't come with 9.2.2 already installed on it (in addition to OS X) then it is not capable of booting into OS 9. The boot ROM will not allow you to install OS 9, even if you format the hard drive. Any apple computers introduced after Jan.'03 are OS X only machines.

Yes it is possilbe. If it's one of the new DDR Ram macs, theres a few trick to perform, but it is possible. I saw a post I think on ths forum that listed what you need to do, and check the Mac forums as well.

I've seen the new "no OS9 macs" run on OS9, I know for a fact it is possible.

Hope this is helpful.
