TOPIC

    Mac OS 8.x and earlier cannot be used in the Classic environment of Mac OS X Public Beta.

DISCUSSION

    The Classic environment in Mac OS X Public Beta allows you to run Mac OS applications within Mac OS X. The Classic environment requires that Mac OS 9 be installed either on the same disk as Mac OS X Public Beta or on a separate disk. Mac OS 9 is the minimum version of Mac OS that can be used by the Classic Environment. Mac OS 9.0.4 is recommended. Mac OS 8.6 and earlier versions are not compatible.
