Hey

Yes i have tried booting wiht "C", but that wont work either. On YDL
homepage, it is recomanded to boot in open firmware.

Blue & White G3s won't boot from Install CD

   1. insert Install CD
   2. (force) reboot
   3. immediately hold OPTION-APPLE-O-F
   4. boot cd:,\\yaboot [ENTER]

i can not make it work.... :(
