Uhm... If I'm not mistaken, there's something like "startup disk" 
somewhere.  You should be able to pick the OS9 system folder here.  I 
know I did it once on a friend's machine, and it was rather 
straightforward...  Long ago though...

Of course -- if you want to run Logic in 9, you need a Logic-9 version.

You don't have to.  Just boot in 9, install Logic-9, launch Logic and 
use the EXS to convert the soundfonts.  Then move the soundfont 
sampler instruments (i.e. the converted exs instruments) from the 
Logic-9 Sampler Instruments folder to the Logic-X Sampler Instruments 
folder.  Move the samples (in the Soundfont Samples folder) to some 
logical place, and restart in OSX.  No need to keep using Logic-9 at 
all.

On the topic of using the same project in both Logic's: in the LUG 
there have been some reports of Logic-X not properly importing 
Logic-9 projects, so I'm not sure if you really want to go that 
route...
