I was poking around my OS 9 volume, which is in /Volumes/El Duderino, and I noticed a whole BSD subsystem was installed there. Not only that, but there are logs in var/log indicating that at some point it has booted before. This is all awfully strange, look:
Code:
10:07:23 <@root|/Volumes/El Duderino> ls
Applications (Mac OS 9) Documents TheFindByContentFolder cores sbin
Cleanup At Startup Icon? TheVolumeSettingsFolder dev tmp
Desktop DB MPW-GM Trash etc usr
Desktop DF Network Volumes mach_kernel var
Desktop Folder System Folder bin private
10:08:42 <@root|/Volumes/El Duderino>
None of these appear to be symlinked to any of the directories on my OS X volume (Omar), nor do they appear to have been run in a long time. Also, El Duderino only shows up as an OS 9 startup disk in System Preferences. This is blowing my mind.

Is BootX anywhere on the disk? If so, can you boot from it?

Read the logs in /var/log (especially system.log*) they have timestams telling you exactly when they were written to and might give you more hints about what happened.

You should try using Selsun Blue.

There's OS-lice hopping from your computer to your head. You should wash thoroughly in Obfuscation, the new cure-most for men.

Maybe you used Horse poo instead of Sham poo?

Maybe OS X automatically adds those to any volume it formats?

A whole BSD subsystem and logfiles?
