What I do in my Classic to boot from the ROM is to power on the computer, wait until the chime and then *inmediately* press Command-Option-X-O, all at the same time (Command, Option and "X" with my left hand and "O" with my right hand - it takes a bit of practise). I keep them pressed until I see the "Welcome to Macintosh" message. If you press the keys too early (i.e., before the chime), the Classic may not realize that you have pressed them, and if you press them too late, the Classic may ignore them.
