Hi Lyndon,

  Which model do you have ? I've booted on my ancient 366Mhz toilet-boot 
12" OK.

  Does this happen very early on in the boot sequence when you hold down 
the 'C' key to boot off the CD ?

  If so (this happens on my eMac), then break into OpenFirmware at 
boot-time and manually boot with:

0 > boot cd:,\boot\loader cd:0

  If not, would you be able to transcribe a line or two on the console 
before it traps into kdb ?

later,

Peter.
