Upgrade to Jaguar

[Jay Friedland]

Not sure if this scenario has been addressed. Direct me if it has.

I'm planning to upgrade but my main concern is in using standard
applications, such as Office, filemaker, i-net, etc. to be able to continue
working should the install hit any snags (i.e., I'm nervous). I am using a
Titanium PB 400 Mhz, with 640 MB memory and 10GB HD, with an external 10 GB
USB and a 40 GB Firewire Pocket Drives.

I was planning to load Classic on the Firewire drive and OS 10 on the Ti. As
the FW drive powers off the Ti, I could travel with both and eventually drop
Classic without having to reformat the Ti drive. Is this the best strategy?
I'm cautious, but don't want to be over-cautious or create other problems
accessing Classic.

What other considerations do I face? I would like to do this install over
T-day weekend for safety.

Thank you for any guidance in this changeover.
