When I tried it with my G3 266 I had a lot better luck starting
out booting from BootX than with the floppies. Actually I
pretty much never turn the machine off, so I haven't gotten
around to dealing with quik...
You might want to try BootX, assuming you still have MacOS on
the machine. I have a working Beige G3 kernel if you want it...
It's got the USB stuff compiled in, which might be a problem for
you if you don't have a USB card.. I also turned on support for
the Tulip 100MB ethernet they were distributing with the Beige
G3s.
