Mac OS X
Q: Dual boot OS 9 on MacBook Pro?
I have a mid-2009 MacBook pro with OS X 10.8.3, is it possible to dual boot it with OS 9?
Also, is it possible to use the OS 9 environment by dual booting OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X 10.5 Leopard?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), 13" mid-2009

You cannot run OS 9 on an Intel Mac regardless of what version of OS X you install. OS 9 did not run in any sort of emulation, so it will only work with hardware it supports. OS 9 does not support Intel hardware.
