Instaling classic after OS X... is it possible?

[wicky]

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this post?

I've done a clean reinstall of Panther, and thinking that I probably didn't need Classic anymore didn't bother to install it first. However, now I need to use my old A3 inkjet and there are no OS X drivers available (only Classic), so I'm stuffed!!

Is it possible to reinstall Classic without messing up my OS X system? .... And, can I use the installation CD's that came with my machine originally to do this? I don't have an actual OS 9.2 installer, other than the one that came with my system originally (G4 Powerbook OS 10.2 was the original disk).

Thanks

You should heed bobw's advice. It is good. I had the same problem.

Come to think of it, I believe Apple should make installation of OS9 more integrated into the OSX process. This would avoid many questions.
