    Hi!

    Do you know about a howto concerning the installation
    of OS 9 in conjunction with MOL / Linux in an existing
    Linux / OS X environment?

    I have Debian Woody with MOL, so I can boot the preinstalled
    OS X under Linux. However, I would like to be able to boot OS9,
    while I don't really want to repartition (and corrupt my existing
    OS X and Linux installations). So it would be nice to install
    OS 9 into a loopback device (hdd-image file).

    Is it possible and is there anybody out there who has done this?

    TIA+CU Lars.
