I've got OS9 and OS 10.1 on the same hard disk. I'd like to restore
system software on 9 (which is getting wonky with age) and upgrade the
10 to .3 without obliterating either (i.e., losing my files, etc.) Is

DVDs I was surprised by a message from Retrospect stating that if I
proceeded to duplicate the disk with the option "Ignore Ownership" checked

What is the Mac equivalent? I use about 5 different machines daily, and

I want to do something that may not be possible, but let me ask anyway.
My "hobby" system is a 233 MHz imac G3. I managed to put in a new hard
