Yes, it will be there when you boot into OS9. In fact, when booted into 
OS9 you will have access to _everything_, including being able to see 
and delete files that are normally hidden in OS X (they're the ones 
that begin with a "." -don't mess with them) and being able to mess 
around in other user's folders.

As I mentioned in another message, the way I initially handled it was 
to, in OS9, make an alias of my user folder and put it on my OS9 
desktop and add it to my favorites menu. That way my user folder, which 
is normally buried, is easily accessible.
