[Ti] Ti PB 867 won't play with OS 9 at all

[Don Williams]

Unfortunately that is another Catch 22. I've got  Tiger installed but  
I'd be happy to erase the HD (it's backed up externally) and do a  
clean install of OS 9. However, I can't do that as the PB will not  
boot from an OS 9 CD-ROM.

But thanks for the information.
