At first the system on the machine was 9.01 and I couldn't boot from the CD.
I then upgraded to 9.1 hoping that would help - same problem. The other
oddity is that even after deleting everything that looked like part of the
server functionality from this machine's past life, "network disk" still
shows up as an option in the start up disk control panel. It reads cds fine;
it just won't boot from it. Yet. Any more suggestions. thanks again.
