A shot at the obvious first - You need a file system for the CD-ROM (ASIM CDFS or another) once that is installed, you should be ready to go.
The CD-ROM will not show up on the boot screen however - until you put a CD in it - then it will appear.
Does that help at all?

3.1 would be a plus - but 3.0 should work...

Since this card's RAM autoconfigs under OS 3.1, you may want to upgrade to the 3.1 ROMs. There are other advantages to the newer ROMs - money well spent IMHO
