You cannot 'remove' the Mac OS. The computer will not function without it. Macintosh computers need, and can only function with, the Mac OS.

What you can do, possibly, is revert to an earlier version of the OS, if you still the disks the computer came with, or you can possibly upgrade to newer OS than the one you are currently using.

If you want to revert, then insert the installation disk and set it as the start-up disk and then follow the onscreen instructions. This will delete the existing OS and install the desired one.

If you are upgrading, insert the installation disk and set it as the start-up disk. Then follow the instructions. This will upgrade the existing OS to the newer one.

You cannot without erasing your hard drive and installing Mac OS 9 from scratch. Even then Mac OS 9 may not run on modern Mac hardware because Mac OS 9 needs the ROM chip to boot. Modern Mac OS X hardware uses EFI to boot the system instead of a ROM chip to boot. Mac OS X v10.0 - Mac OS X v10.4 support Mac OS 9 applications and can run them, you just need to install the Mac OS 9 compatibility program which can be found on the Mac OS X Install CD.
