I tried to boot an LC475 that I am setting up for acustomer from an OS 8.0 CD. I held down the 'C' key as normal and it crashed to:

[Sad]
[Mac]
0000000F
00000001

Odd I thought. It was supposed to work on all 040 Macs. I rebooted assuming the hard disk (with 7.6) would boot the machine as normal, but got the same Sad Mac again.

I decided to try Cmd-Opt-Shift-Del to skip booting the CD. This resulted in it booting normally into 8.0 FROM the CD.

What gives???
