The short answer is: it tells your Mac that it's a Mac and allows it to
"be". That fuzzy enough for ya?

That could be the culprit. Only retail copies have everything needed for
all-compatible Macs and clones. The times when it "does" work are when
the computer in question didn't need something not on the model-specific
CD, i.e. you got lucky with the 7100.

Don't remember which Mac PCPs are based on. Is that also NuBus? If not...
