I've searched on the internet and forum and I can't find an answer if I can or cannot install 9.2 on my macbook pro because classic won't work on the new intel macs. Is it possible and if yes, do you put it on a partition. And if you do put it on a partition how do you install it on the partition?
Thanks for any help

According to the page below at Apple, "you cannot use Mac OS 9 applications on Intel-based Macintosh computers because the Classic environment is not supported."

"Classic, or Classic Environment, was a hardware and software abstraction layer in Mac OS X that allowed applications compatible with Mac OS 9 to run on the Mac OS X operating system. The name "Classic" is also sometimes used by software vendors to refer to the application programming interface available to "classic" applications, to differentiate between programming for Mac OS X and the previous version of the Mac OS. Classic is not supported in Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, or on Intel Macs."
