Q: Downgrading iMac G3 from OS X 10.4 to Mac OS 9
I plan to downgrade my iMac G3 PowerMac2,2 from OS X 10.4 Tiger to Mac OS 9. So I know the iMac needs Mac OS 9.0.4. Will I just put in the disc, open the disc management (Can't remember what it is called at the moment), format the hard drive, click install now, and then go through the steps to install Mac OS 9? Am I missing anything? The computer does have the latest firmware.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11), G3 Processor

After inserting the disk, restart with the C or Option key held down, erase the internal drive in the Finder, and start the installer.
