You can get that is the RAM is mixed up by mistake (3 4MB and 1 1MB). Also
if the socket clips are broken and the ram is not inserted correctly.

It should 'just boot' into the Installer. The Happy Mac you briefly get
indicates that the Mac can see the disc, and the System Folder on it, so
the CD-ROM is undoubtedly working. I'm still thinking about RAM being a
problem, mind you, but your unit may just be plain broken if it's throwing
bus errors.

Ugh. Are you sure the CD is good? Things that also
occur to me is a
problem
with the controller.
I got it from ebay. It's not perfect, but I don't see why it shouldn't
work.
What should be happening here? Should the machine detect and just
boot off the cd-rom? Or do I have to do anything different than just
turn it on?
