Hmm…I will try to help as best I can. But I haven't installed os8.1 in ages so bare with me.

If you look carefully in the CD there is some other kind of installer if I'm not mistaken and using it will allow to install as it avoids some machine specific stuff.

I wonder if this might help?

I hope someone else with more recent experience can pitch in a word.

Hello friends,
A few months ago I bought on EBay an OS 8.1 CD that
was advertised as being usuable on any Mac. I finally
got around to trying to install it on my Duo 2300 in a
DuoDock Plus and I get a message that it can't install
on my computer. The CD is obviously for an iMac. Is
there any way to get it to work on the Duo 2300? I
have OS 7.5.5 on it now.
Thanks for any suggestions before I go shopping again!
