Comment:

I am upgrading a number of older G4 macs to OS X (10.3). I wish to initially, for safety, set the machines as dual-boot with OS9 on another partition. If I have serious problems with OS X (or more importantly the Pro-Tools software) I will go back to OS 9. Is it possible to do a clean removal of OS X and its own partition in a case like this? so that only OS 9 is left on a single partition.
