[Macpartners] bootable 9.2.2 CD

[Jordan Miller]

I think it could be done this way:
Start with a bootable Mac OS 9.1 CD
copy the System folder from the CD to your hard drive
replace the Mac OS ROM file in this System folder with a copy from an 
OS 9.1 install (you can't boot with the ROM file from the CD)
boot off this new OS 9.1 System folder
Upgrade this System folder to Mac OS 9.2.2
Boot off your real System folder, and use a utility such as Toast to 
burn your bare-bones OS 9.2.2 system folder to a CD, and make it 
bootable (in OS 9, only a program such as Toast can make a CD bootable, 
I think...)

good luck.
