Perhaps beddereven in OS 8.6? For me, the overheads of OS 9.1 are not worth the space or the RAM in a similarly tricked-out 1400: (Sonnet) G3/400MHz, 64MB (single 48MB RAM card), IBM 4GB HDD, VIEWpowr video-out card and Farallon EtherMac PC card. Keep in mind that Target Disk mode, if it concerns you, is 'off, dear', for HDDs of greater than 4GB. It's a ROM feature, and therefore irremediable.
