Jeff -- IIRC (from two eeks ago!) a at least system 7.5.2 is needed to boot a 5300. You could download that from Apple's Older Software site, strip out anything you don't need (such as Disk First Aid & HD Setup), and install minimal networking stuff -- there's unlikely to be room for ethernet extensions but LocalTalk over the serial cable should work.
