Hmm, ROM 3s have system 5.0 toolsets in ROM so not sure you'd want to run
4.0 on a ROM 3. But then again I got mine to boot system 3.2 and even 1.1
so maybe it'll work. But then again I only did that for gee-whiz value, sorta
like booting my Mac Plus with system .94 one time. Might freak it if you
were to try doing real work like stuff on it.
