Re: Mac OS 9 Full Install
Well, here is a dumb question, Why?
Sorry, i don't think that this can be done. It would seem odd for apple to put the exta work in to allow this to happen when 99.99% of the time people would rather have updates.

Re: Re: Mac OS 9 Full Install
Mac OS 9.2.2 is the latest version of Mac OS 9
OR are you trying to extract a bootable copy of OS 9.x from a OS X + classic install?
Some of the computers did ship with a bootable versions of OS 9 on the recovery disk, others with just classic.
However if you really have some reason to install OS 9.0 instead of the OS 9.2.2 you have -- you probably need to find an old OS 9.0 CD.
