Startup Disk Utl/Sys Pref Quits Unexpectedly

Question

I have a G4 533 DA that has 2 HD's. One HD has OS 9.2 loaded and the other HD is partitioned into 3 HD's. One partition has OS 10.1.5. The others were for storage. I loaded OS 10.4 onto one of the partitions and then used the installer to bring over apps/data,etc., to the OS 10.4 HD.
Whenever I try to open "Startup Disk" as a Utility or Sys Preferences I get the "Quit Unexpectedly" notice. I read in a prev. disc. that someone said to use "console log" to see what was happening and post it. So I am posting it below.
I also tried another prior suggestion and created another User and tried to open it but the same thing happens. In fact, if I open it through the Sys Pref's it doesn't show any of the HD's only sort of an image of a HD with "network" "?" on it before it quits.
Is 10.4 finicky about having 9.2 on a separate HD or another OS X on the same HD even if it's partitioned?
Any help wold be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks.

Thanks to all who posted replies!!
After receiving so much help I decided to try reloading 10.4. I did an archive/install, and creation of a new second Sys. folder seemed to do the trick.
