Well, that didn't work out as I expected...

G3DT Rev B 266mhz. enough RAM (160mb), enough HD (4gb, two partitions. 1 
1gb, the other 3gb).
Clean 9.1 install on fresh 1 gb partition.
Start Install X.1
Black screen
Restart
White screen with the following:

unknown word
Open Firmware, 2.4
To continue booting Mac O/s type:
BYE(return)
To continue booting from default boot device type:
BOOT(return)
For Open Firmware serial number I/O type:
TTYA(return)
ok

and that's all she wrote...  I've zapped, CUDA'd, added and removed
drives to the point that the CD is all that's left, pulled PRAM battery,
Vulcan nerve pinched and everything else I can think of...  Won't boot 
from anything, not CD, not HDD, not floppy. Reseated cards too.
.
Same message. Immediately.  Way before it goes looking for drives.

What do I do now? Throw it in the dumpster? Shoot, I've only owned it
for about 4 hours...
