Mac people: Help me boot from this CDROM.

Mac clone. PowerComputing PowerCenter 150. Need to boot from a specific file on a CDROM. CDROM\PPC\SETUPLDR specifically.

Supposedly, I should just be able to pass the command 'BOOT CDROM,\PPC\SETUPLDR' to the system via the console, but that doesn't do anything.

What in the hell do I need this for? Well, I am the defiler, and am hell bent on doing my best to force WinNT 4.0 Workstation onto this machine. Officially, the only supported PPC CPU is the RS6000, but some people have reported clones working. Simply setting the CD as the startup disc in OS8 doesn't work - the CD ejects before the machine reboots. Which pisses me off.
 
Bump. I know some of you harbor these evil machines. Then again, Apple wasn't cool back before they were blue and white.
