Another thought .... You can install OS9 on your OSX partition. I 
assume with a 90G partition you have room for that. Then just use 
Startup Disk (in either OS) to go to 9 on that volume and do your 
scanning stuff there.

If you don't want to add a drive or erase/re-partition then doing 
this you can just chalk up 900MB (less than 1 percent) to your 
experience. And/or you can fill it up with 700-800MB of stuff and 
still have everything you wanted.

Personally I would back up and format for a one-partition drive though :)
