Re: can't dual boot

Actually, I figured it out. I had to use Apple's Drive Setup from OS 9.2 to 
update the disk driver, and then <poof!> it now dual boots. The CD I was 
trying to boot from was OS 8.6, which is what the Mac OS is on the hard 
drive. But the tech coordinator at the school where I volunteer made the 
update driver suggestion. I was very happy for that, since I had tried the 
Command-Option-PR thing...Now I'm a happy camper! 

Thanks for the suggestion!
