Help!!

I got the 1.5.2 iso and tried booting that. I get the same identical
error....

Since now desperation begins to creep in... I tried what someone lese
here suggested. Taking out some ram modules.
I took out all my precious ram modules leaving but one (thus also
disabling interleaving). The original that was shipped with the mac. I
also took out ethernet cards, etc.

Now I can't get it to boot! The mac does only "bong" and I can't get
something on the display or on the serial line! I tried pressing the
magical button on the m-board... nothing.
Bong should mean that at least I didn't fry the CPU taking it out right?

(opening a 9500 is not a nice process...)

I was confident to read soon my mail with mutt than with outlook
express, but it is getting a real mess here.
