I haven't seen that for
9.2.1 over 9.1 on the instance I use as Classic (DP533==old slow Mac ;-))
9.2.1 over the pure 9.1 on that machine
9.2.1 over the only 9.1 on a company iMac
(Mac OS X is at 10.0.4--the "regular" one, not the newer one shipped with
the summer 2001 G4s on all those machines). I haven't seen this mentioned
on MacFixIt (although I'm reading only a small percentage of the blizzard
of 9.2.1 messages). It has to be something about your situation.
Did you start from the 9.1 partition, with the Mac OS 9.1 All extensions set?

Even more OT...does it bother anyone else that Apple named its summer G4s
for a highly toxic and obnoxious substance: Mercury ("Quicksilver")?
