I installed X.1 using the free update, but used the wipe disk option. Now I don't have a Classic environment. I used the 9.1 and 9.1-9.2 disks to install 9 in a System Folder, but when I try to start Classic from within X.1, it says there is a permissions error.

Does anyone know how to fix this, or what is the correct way to install 9 after installing X? I'd like to avoid wiping the disk and starting all over, installing 9 first, if possible (because when I first ran the update, I repartitioned my drive so it wouldn't let me run the update and I had to start all over).
The 4 o'clock train will be a bus.
It will depart at 20 minutes to 5.
