I have an old laptop (520c!) that I would like to extract OS 9.2 from and install on my iMac. I know how to hook the laptop up to my iMac. How exactly do I go about extracting the correct files for OS 9.2??

thanks in advance....

Hi there,

OS 9.2 on a 520c ? It doesn't run on it unless you have had a PPC upgrade ?

Is it 9.2 ?

As bluekatt say's you can just copy it across, but it needs to be copied onto a drive that has OS 9 driver's installed...this may mean a reformat of you iMac hard drive depending on how it was originally set up...

Personally, I would get a 'original' OS 9.2 cd from ebay and install from that...

regards

Ric
