I thought I read somewhere (probably lowendmac.com) that some versions of the StarMax can only boot from the CD if it is the primary drive on the primary controller (at least for ide). I have not yet had occasion to test this theory as I don't have any bootable PPC cd's, except one that won't boot with the ide cd-rom on the secondary interface. Perhaps a SCSI cd-rom would get around this? If you can get a boot floppy that would be your best bet.
