Classic MOL newbie question

Nah, since you have an installation of Mac OS X on your hard disk,
just install the appropriate packages (MOL consists of kernel modules,
the virtual machine, and drivers for the operating system) and run
`startmol --osx'.

Not at all.  But you asked for a way of running Mac OS 9 without
repartitioning a hard disk that is split between Debian and Mac OS X.
That's what I described to you.

That's a different issue.  IMHO, your best bet is to set up a virtual
network between the Mac OS (X) side and the Linux side and use some
kind of network file transfer (Samba, NFS, scp, ftp, whatever).  In
principle, Linux can read and write HFS+ partitions directly, but the
driver is fairly new and writing is kind of buggy.  I only use it for
reading large files that I don't want to store twice (like MP3s).

Regards, Jens.
