Thanks for the confirmation. I'll just keep the Maxtor around as my OS 9 safety valve. One bootable OS 9 drive ought to be enough.
As for option boot, as I mentioned earlier in this thread, it doesn't work in this situation. Almost nothing works. The only 2 outlets I have found are Open Firmware boot (option-command-O-F) and X boot. OS 9 CDs (lots of them) won't boot nor single user mode (option-S) and other techniques.
