Hey guys im in a bite of a hurry !
after Formating my HD on a g4 opticale drive i try to
install os9 on it. it gives me an error message wich says
"cannot install this system on your computer please refer to manual"

i had 0s9 working on it before because im using eMagic Logic to work with it.
now i have to run logic on 10.3.1 witch is buggy i prefer the os9 !

if you could tell me what to do ....
thanx a million
 
Which version of OS 9 are you trying to install? I think you must have OS 9.2.1 or 9.2.2 in order to get it working on your machine.
 
When you reformatted your drive, you had an option of installing drivers for OS 9. If you didn't do that, you won't be able to install OS 9, you'll have to reformat again and choose that option.
 
hey guys sorry i replied so late.

yes i installled the os9 drivers and i tried both OS 9.2.1 & 9.2.2
i also tried os 9.1 wich didn't even boot on CD.
when i try run the os9 installer it keeps saying "cannot install Mac Os9 on your computer. Please refer to the documents"

i even tried to clone a working OS9 system to my g4 it started booting up but it freezes after loading the 3rd extension.
i disabled the extentions one by one it didn't boot.
but when im lauching the classic on X.3.1 it works well.

guys please help me i gotta fix that thing ASAP.

thanx
