If its starting to load the Finder or some part of the booting 
process chances are you have some INIT or something installed 
that does not like to work on an 030 system. If you boot
from a floppy and get the Hard disk to mount, you might want
to remove INIT's and perhaps debuggers to see if that solves the
problem. I installed a Radius accelerator in a Plus once with
a Jasmine 80 and it would not boot afterwards, and I found that
it was due to an older version of the Macsbug debugger that was
causing my problems...
