Hi all,

I have inherited an old Apple iMac G3 500MHz running OSX 10.2
(blue/grey if that is relevant - don't laugh, I've seen the colour
referenced loads in the forums !!), and want to install Gentoo on it.
I have burned off the ppc version of the installation CD, but cannot
get it to boot from CD.

After trawling the web for ideas, I have tried holding the following
key combinations down during the boot sequence with no success:

1) C
2) Alt
3) CTRL-C (this gives me a boot prompt eventually for the OSX shell)
4) command-opt-shift-del (I haven't even got these keys on the
keyboard, so I tried every feasible combination of control, apple and
alt keys with shift and delete - nothing worked).

Any other ideas?? The mac is next to useless to me at the moment.
