13:25 - Mac OS Standard is the old (System 3 to Mac OS 8.0) HFS file system. Mac OS Extended is the HFS+ file system introduced in Mac OS 8.1.

HFS+, which debuted with OS 8.1 in 1998 was a more advanced version of HFS, which had been the Mac file system since Mac OS 3. It added journaling support, support for larger file via increased block address of 32 bits in length (vs 16 bit lengths in HFS) , support for Unicode file naming, and support for hard links to directories. Since MacOS 10.13 (Sept, 2017) Apple has since switched to the Apple File System (APFS) as the default file system for system drives on Mac desktop and Laptop machines (as well as for IOS/IPad-OS devices) which adds a lot new features such cloning files without need to use twice the space for duplicate (cloned) files, file system snapshot support, native full-disk encryption support, data integrity protection via checksums, support for multiple logical drives in one container (i.e. multiples hard drives/SSD drives are paired together so they appear as one single drive to the system (aka as one volume) with the free space of each drive being treated as one big block. Note that Time Machine backup drives must be formatted with the older HFS+ due to time machine not being compatible with APFS (at least yet) due Time Machine’s current reliance on directory hard link support which APFS does not support. Also, any external Mac formatted drive you wish to use with Linux (using the open source HFS+ linux driver) or Windows (using either the HFS+ Windows driver either from Apple or from a third party) should be formatted as HFS+ not APFS, as no APFS drivers exists for Windows or Linux yet (AFAIK). For regular cross-platform moving of files, I would skip HFS+ and just format the drive in NTFS as stable full read-write NTFS drivers are currently available for both Linux and Mac (not that out of the box MacOS still only supports ready-only NTFS access currently but third-party stable read/write drivers are available for the Mac that enable write support (and some external drives manufacturers include read-write NTFS Mac drivers on their NTFS formatted external drives such as Seagate.
Bonus plan: get an OS 8 Mac and update it to 9.

Funny enough, the iBook G4 was still new when I first saw the word "cnidarian", and if I spelled that wrong, it's because it's been THAT LONG since I last saw that word.
The funny thing is that computers can tell you what happened when an error occurs but only decide to say “An Error Occurred”

I remember there being CDs bundled with various PowerPC macs (e.g. Mac mini G4) that couldn't boot OS 9. One of these CDs contained a Classic installer that ran entirely from OS X. No idea where you can get them; I got mine from FastMac (now defunct).

21:33 I recommend never burning system disks with the highest speed possible. It may cause problems while copying and while it may work for minor software, the system files may be slightly corrupted, possibly making the system uninstallable.
13:00 This is a reference to Vacation when Clark was holding the Wally World security guard hostage with a BB gun I think. "You couldn't even break the skin with that thing" "It could, yeah it could, it could lodge under the skin and cause a very bad infection"
you make me want to go on CR and buy me a ibook to try Mac OS 9, Leopard was the first Mac OS that I tried out growing up.
Does the boot option screen use the classic enviarment?
did u try , hfs+ partition and copy sys and apps folder , or all content of the cd to there anyway
Heh, I just spent about a week dicking around with a 2006 MacBook Pro, trying desperately to install Snow Leopard on a new blank drive (old drive was toast). No dual layer burner, and the drive couldn't read ANY of the discs I threw at it. I ended up Target Disk Mode'ing it to another Mac, partitioning the new drive with three partitions (2 small, 1 large). I put a Tiger install DVD image on the first partition, and a Snow Leopard DVD image on the second partition. Booted up, installed Tiger, did some updates, ran the Snow Leopard installer, rebooted, installed, rebooted and boom, nice new fresh Snow Leopard on the system. edit: I have a Tangerine clamshell and I've got the same (even more extreme) cracking around the Apple logo. It's ugly, but oh well.

Ken, you should use a Firewire to IDE adapter instead of the almost always fried internal drive.
iMac g4 and iBook G4 are the same don't worry about the font there's no difference between them it's just a 2002 iMac so near when Mac OSX 10 was released so people wanted OS 9 still so they did compatible Macs for classic mode from that era of Mac
26:45 The accent, plus what you said was perfect
you know something's wrong when a krazy ken video is multiple parts, and 30 minutes long
Yeah it drives me nuts when the error is "an error occurred" and it *doesn't specify* what the error is. Like, is it hardware, software (and if so what kind), user? Give us something to work with.

Why don't use classsic mode via rosetta?
Mac OS Standard only recognizes disk partitions that are up to 2 gigabytes in size. Mac OS Extended, aka HFS+, can recognize disk partitions beyond that; although I think the limit is 1 billion gigabytes.
The cracks around the logo are incredibly common, I've never seen one without them.

iBook G4s weren't able to run Mac OS 9 natively, but that changed as the limitation was overcome a couple of years ago. As Gravarty mentioned, take a look at the MacOS9Lives discussion forum (I was "iMic" on there, and helped develop the first modified version of the Mac OS ROM for this purpose). They've come a long way with running Mac OS 9 on newer hardware.
Either it's already done or you forgot to mount the drive. In case it isn't, the first step is to go to the utilities folder and click drive setup. Follow the instructions and you should be able to see the hard drive on the desktop. Then you click install, and of all of the bizarre questions it will ask if you want to continue or quit. You want to quit. Then restart the computer. It should load OS 9 from the hard drive.
The usual hell working your way through the narrow window of mac OS software and hardware compatibility not as bad in the past as today, catch 22 scenarios. Dead drive on iBook sounded like to me. Your nowadays best off with a drag install of os9 then bless it, not from a cd, bit rot scratches funky cd reading is an issue.

iBook G3 900Mhz is the fastest iBook that can natively boot OS9. If you want to run OS9 on a portable G4 you have to get a Powerbook G4 Titanium. iBook G4's and aluminum Powerbook G4's can't boot OS9 outside of classic mode inside of OSX.
To be fair you can install os9 from an iMac install disc on a power Mac g4 no problem :P
The best Mac laptop for OS 9 is the Powerbook G4 Titanium DVI - It was the very last (and most powerful) Apple laptop that could run OS9 natively without using classic mode in OS X.

Watching this a year late, curious if you managed to get it working. Anyway, macos9 was a quite straight forward simple os, it could be installed by simply copying the system folder. But it couldn't run unless the "macos9 drivers" (optional since osX) were installed while formatting the target disk. Also, wasn't a good idea having 9 and X on the same partition, as it could lead to errors. You brought up some good memories anyway eheheh.
