Well, it seems the original problem was that I had my monitor hooked up
to my Radeon 7000.
After removing the card and using the on board video, it started to
install. I got to the point where you select a destination disk. But,
it didn't give me any choices. Kind of like it didn't see either HD.
So, I redid my SCSI bus so the CD ROM and HD's are on the same bus.
Now it doesn't detect the CD ROM. So now I can't boot in to OS 9.1 with
the CD ROM hooked up. It checks the CD ROM and nothing else.
I tried holding down "option" "Control, apple, C" and the "delete"
key. What else do you do to by pass the CD ROM?
Thanks
Kevin
