The CDROMS in PowerComputing machines lack the ROM necessary to boot from Apple install disks. You'll need a driver for the CDROM (PowerComputing shipped with various wersions of Hard Disk Toolkit) to boot from a CD. Alternatively, if you have a CDROM from an Apple machine, simply exchange the devices.
