Hello.

I recently posted a topic about my OSX partition being severly fragmented, and I have since read that an OSX drive should be formatted from within OSX.

All of my drives were formatted from within OS9.

I have OS9/OSX stuff scattered all over my drives.(on seperate partitions)

Could this be the reason that my OSX partition is getting more easily fragmented ? (I barely use it)

And if I do format one of drives from within OSX and partition it, will this give me problems when putting OS9 stuff onto some of these partitions on the OSX formatted drive ?

Basically, my question is: Can OSX stuff and OS9 stuff coexsist on the same drive. Or should I just keep them seperate on completely seperate drives ?

thanx

Just to add one thing:

The main reason I'm going to have to reformat my drives is not because of the fragmentation, but because I want to install Protools 6 onto my system, and digidesign states that it must be installed onto an OSX formatted drive.

OS X and OS 9 live side by side just fine. If you reformat a partition using OS X's Disk Utility, just make sure to check the box that says "Install OS 9 Drivers" and all will be well.

Great. Thanx.

Guess I'm off to do some formatting then.
