Might it be that the OS is specific to the original processor? 603e or so?
I know that at some point in the install process, I see a prompt about configuring the system to your computer.
If you can find a generic CD for OS 8.5/8.6 or OS 9.0 and try booting from that and see what happens.
Theoretically, it shouldn't make a difference. But this is Apple, after all. -- Chris Tucker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gis.net/~cht
