NO disks, huh?  If you have your Disk Tools disk, you can boot off of that
by putting it in and then starting the machine.  I'm a bit curious about
the error message, though.  Usually when there's a system problem, it
gives you a flashing question mark on bootup.  If you want, you can email
me and we'll see what we can do...  You may end up calling Apple to buy
another set of sys disks...
