I have an old MB pre intel. How do I start up in either Classic or OS 9?
MacBook Pro (15-inch 2.4/2.2 GHz), Mac OS X (10.6.8)
No MacBook Pro can use Mac OS 9 or Classic; they all have Intel CPUs. The iBook G4 and aluminum PowerBook G4s can’t boot into Mac OS 9 either.

If it is a MacBook (MB), Pro or otherwise, it does have an Intel processor and can not make use of OS 9 for any purpose.
If it is pre-intel, it would be a PowerBook (PB) or an iBook. We would need to know the exact model in order to define what use it can make of OS 9 and how to go about doing that.
If the serial number is available, this site can identify its model designation for you -
accidental duplicate - ignore, please
how do I start up in classic mode?
