Tryin' to install OS 9 on a 7500/upgrade G4 PCI

[TheDNF]

I have an older 7500/100. I just installed a Crecendo G4 upgrade PCI 800/1M card. I have a 1GIG internal and a 60GIG external (USB). I have OS 9 and 10.2. And am having a HECK of a time tryin' to get it all to work! HELP PLEASE?
Even if it's just procedural advise. Anything would be great..

officially 9.1 should work, but not 9.2 or OSX

I use 8.6 personally on powermacs made before g3's I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.

I bought OS Jaguar 10.2
So I'd like to go threw the upgrade process to get 10.2 installed.

and you know that Apple says it can't be done.

I have a 7600 w/ a G3 400 upgrade card. Even though Apple says it can't be done, you can get OS 9.2.2 installed. Check out

You have to have OS 9.1 installed 1st, but it will let you get to OS 9.2.2 on unsupported machines.

For OS X, go to

It is supposed to be possible to run OS X on the 7500/7600, but I have been unable to get it working. I haven't tried very hard, or for awhile now, so you may have better luck.
