I am in a jam and need to install 9.2.2 on my G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors 2003). I need an ~installation~ disc, not just the System folder from the OS X Classic environment.
Even though I am a registered user of Panther, Apple wants me to pay $150 for a 9.2.2 installation disc.
If you can help me out, please mail me. Thanks!
You can probably get this item as a CD from AppleRescue http://www.applerescue.com/ for much less than from Apple. They gave me prompt service a few months ago. There's also MacRescue at http://www.macresq.com. Have not dealt with them.

So far, no luck. :o(
If anyone has the following type of PowerMac and has a 9.2.2 installation disc for it, PLEASE mail me.
Machine Name: Power Mac G4
Machine Model: PowerMac3,6
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (3.3)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
L3 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB
Bus Speed: 167 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.4.8f2
If you have the installation disk for an earlier version of OS9 you can download an updater (or possibly a series of updaters) to get you to OS 9.2.2 from:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75288
I think a 9.2.2 updater is on the OSX installation/update disk as well but only runs as part of an OSX installation.
Hope this helps.
