Applescript... ?

[Nummi]

I do not want my sister to be an admin on my G4. She is always messing with my prefs and changing my password. but, if she is not an admin... she cannot boot into OS 9. Is it possible to write an applescript that will restart the computer into OS 9? (without being an admin)

nummi, i'm not sure if this is what you are looking for or not but it was just released today at versiontracker. click here for a haxie that will quickly reboot to 9 without going thru startup disk.

Now versiontracker has changed - can you remember the name of that app? The link lo longer works.

She can always reboot and hold the alt-key while starting up to select the startup disk (assuming os9 is on a different partition)

She can always reboot and hold the alt-key while starting up to select the startup disk (assuming os9 is on a different partition)

That would be the Option key.

That would be the Option key.

Hehe... only to Mac users, though... technically, it's both... And labeled as such on my keyboard!
