Best Answer

The Boot Camp utility assists in setting up a Mac so that Windows can be installed. It will not run Mac OS 9.

Boot Camp assistant lets you boot into Boot Camp which is a Windows type program to be able to install and use a Windows Operating System. Boot Camp installs Apple drivers and is basically the translator for Apples hardware like the keyboard, mouse, Airport, etc.

OS 9 being a Mac OS, as old as it is, can't speak Windows. The new Mac OS was re-written to be able to use the same type Intel chip that Windows uses.

Is it possible to install Linux on a Mac using Boot Camp?

It is possible to install Linux on a Mac using Boot Camp but it can be messy. Option 1: If you have Windows installed is to use the Wubi installer (See links below) to install Linux from within Windows. Option 2: Use Boot Camp to create a Window partition. Boot from the Live CD, run Partition Editor, delete the Windows partition, Run the Installer and install into Free Space. Option 3: Ignore Boot Camp. Run directly from a LiveCD or USB stick. Option 4: Ignore Boot Camp. Run in Virtual Box.


Does boot camp erase Mac?

No. It does not erase Mac. When you use Boot Camp you are switching your operating system to Windows. (Usually to run a program for Windows.) You can switch back whenever you want.


Is Mac boot camp bad for your Mac?

Not particularly. When using Boot Camp it does repartition the hard drive (scary in the unlikely even that it goes wrong) and so you should always make backups onto an external hard drive. But Boot Camp is made by Apple and designed to run on the Mac, so I don't think it's "bad" other than the fact that you'll have a couple dozen less GB of storage for your Mac files.
