With the 2400 and the 1400 connected by a SCSI cable you MAY be able to boot by
starting the 2400 first (should produce the b&w screen with 2 in a diamond moving
across it) and then the 1400, which would make the 1400 the master. This would
definitely work if the 1400 was a desktop machine.
Or
You should be able to bypass the "startup disk" (to the waiting cd) when booting the
2400 by holding down the Apple-option-shift-delete key combination. I call that
nervous infinity sign on the keyboard an apple because my Apple Classic keyboard also
has an apple on it. And i use my 2400 with that keyboard.
