Geez do I feel horrible. In an attempt to reinstall and *fix* my wife's G3 333 bronze keyboard Laptop, I somehow managed to crash the computer during the install process. I was going through the steps of upgrading from OS 9.0.4 to 9.1 (was intending on going through to 9.2.2) and I must have screwed it up fiddling with the network while having left it connected!! Ack!
The horrible thing now is that I can't get it to boot from CD! I've restarted with the CD pressing the "C" key and no go. Instead it boots only to a partial system showing me the "happy mac" icon, but not doing anything else. How unhappy! I hoped against hope that it might be recognized over our soho network, but alas, here I was dissapointed as well. Does anyone have any advice? How can I force it to boot from CD besides by pressing "C"? Arrrrrggggg. Thanks for any suggestions!
