Huh?
TECHINFO-0020513
TOPIC
The PowerBook 1400 will not start up from a CD-ROM disc by pressing the "C" key on the keyboard as many other Macintosh computers do. How can I force it to start up from a CD?
DISCUSSION
PowerBook 1400 series computers can be started up from a bootable CD-ROM disc by simultaneously holding down these four keys as the computer is starting up:"COMMAND (the Apple key)" "OPTION" "SHIFT" and "DELETE". This start up procedure is used when you want to bypass the internal hard drive and force the computer to start up from the next available SCSI or IDE device, which in this case, is the CD-ROM mechanism.
