  Dragon OS9 Software   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
OS9 is an operating system based around Unix specifically targetted for MC6809 based processors, hence it is written in assembler rather than C.
There are two OS9 variants for the 6809, Level 1 which is available for the Dragon supports up to 64K of RAM and Level 2 which is available on the CoCo 3 supports up to 16MB of RAM by using special paging hardware to switch in 64K blocks of memory at a time.
Source files are held as ASCII, whilst binary files are standard OS9 modules (more than 1 module may be held in a file, use utilities such as RIP to split them apart or load the file into memory then use the SAVE utility to save each module as a file).

Using new USB Apple keyboards under OS9 as well as OSX, you hold CONTROL and tap the Media Eject key to bring back the "Are you sure?" dialog containing the classic "Restart-Sleep-Cancel-Shutdown" button choices-- with their equivalent keyboard commands: R, S, Command-period or just Return for Shutdown.
OS9 and earlier users invested a lot of time in learning and imprinting behaviors that really worked well in the Mac Finder.
Just as in OS9, a teeny tiny little "P" square in the upper left corner of your screen is the access point, in any application.

OS9, although venerable and great for its time, is primitive compared to OSX.

The printer is hooked up currently to an OS9 station, where USB print sharing is on and the Canon sharing Server software is installed.

As far as my laptop goes, I am sitting next to the printer now, so it is not as big of a deal.

her goal is to be able to get docs from the os9 box to the osx box so she can print them.
i hit all the permissions to be 'read and write.' i then went to the os9 box, fired up the network browser, found the ibook, browsed to the folder, entered the password, ticked the keychain, and created an alias on the os9 desktop to that folder.
after about 20 minutes, the os9 box can't find the share anymore and i have to delete the alias and repeat all the steps and create a new alias.

This font is not available on my OSX based Adrenaline and the client insists upon using it.
It's easy enough to try one folder and then the other, I just didn't know if one was preferred over the other.
The reason I listed both folders is because some programs look in one place and not in another and some carbon programs (Avid, Office) still have OS9 limitations on fonts.

Although I have always been a huge supporter of partitioning for OSX and Os9, I am trying to decide in their case if they even need to.
I sort of got stuck on thinking that partitioning was a good thing and was bound to setting up an OS9 partition that took too much time to figure out.
BR, I repeated [as if I discovered it] the tip about using TinkerTool to mount the OS9 image to the Apple dealer where I purchased the 'puter -- I had them involved in the process when I was having problemos -- and it was something none or their tech help knew.

 Os9 - The Dead Horse - 440 Forums - Mac Music
It would seem that OS9 has reached it's demise as far as support, upgrades, and available software.
OS X Tiger is just out and all new machines are shipped with it, but it seems not all programs and plug-ins are 100% compatible with it so before making your move you might want to do some research and possibly wait a while for the latest updates.
Upgrading to X does not mean that you can't re-boot back into OS9 and use all that OS9 goodness....

 Installing Os9 Programs - 440 Forums - Mac Music
You should now be in OS9 and you can load your drivers and play with your toys.
As I'm writing this, another question has popped into my head - in the long run, after osX apps are stable enough to leave os9 behind for good, I'm guessing that having this separate partition won't be the most efficient use of the disk.
There is no chance for conflicts, components and drivers are loaded in different places, and OS9 can't do anything with an OS10 component.

US court officials at Southern Iowa district court told VNU Newswire that the case was filed against Apple at the end of last week and that, as yet, it had had no response from Apple, which has 20 days to respond from the date of the filing.
Any delay would be a major blow to Apple, which has been trumpeting the features of this new OS for more than a year.
OS9, codenamed Sonata, is an interim update to the Mac operating system before OSX (pronounced OS ten) comes out next year.

I want to note that when Apple discontinued the ability to boot into OS9, they made available for a short time a model that still had this capability, and made it very clear that you wanted to buy this model if you had to boot into OS9.
