Formatting Usb Drive For Mac Os 9
The Macintosh community is anxiously awaiting the release of Mac OS 9! Before you install OS 9, you'll need to prepare your hard drive-and the instructions are all right here! Then you could run Classic on top of OS X or boot back into full OS 9. In the OP's case, he or she will need to wipe the drive and install OS 9. Computer networks tanenbaum 5th rapidshare downloader. The easiest way is to either replace the internal disk drive, use a USB external disk drive, or attempt an OS 9 install off of USB.
I just want to know if I can boot of my Mac OS 9 CD
with no hard drive that is readable in the machine,
format it in [Drive] Setup and then install on it.
Mac OS 9 CDs are System/Install CDs. Your Mac can boot from the CD with no Hard Drive at all.
Once booted from the CD, look in the Utilities folder on the CD for Drive Setup.
If the drive is shown in the list of devices, you should be able to initialize it. Be sure to choose Mac HFS+ Extended format.
Once the drive is initialized, you can click on the Mac OS Install Icon on the CD to install onto the newly-initialized Hard Drive.

hi
I'm using a 2013 macpro/catalina.
I want to create multiple partitions on external storage devices which are formatted with FAT 32 (not mac os x extended journaled).
I cannot use disk utility because I want the partitions to be formatted with FAT 32. I've searched the net but can't find any solutions.
To put this question in context I started to explore Linux and have managed to make bootable usb linux os using unebootin.
Now i want to put 2/3 different Linux os on a external instead of using multible usb sticks.
Any solution(s) would be highly appreciated even if terminal commands involved.
I am 69 yo and like computer challenges to keep the brain active.
