Todd,

I ran into the same problem also. Although my iMac can boot from the
OS 8 system CD, MOL cannot or that's what I suppose so. My solution
was to extract the ROM image from my hard drive. That is the working
ROM image which my Mac boots from. Now, I can run MOL smoothly from
then on.

Rgds,
David
