This is not true. I own an oldworld beige G3, and I can boot YDL just 
fine from the install CD.

I believe with quick, it must even be possible to setup an oldworld 
machine completely without a mac-os installed. But since I never tried, 
I could be confusing something here. I do intend to try one day though...
