Don't forget that the 6100 series will display nothing if a dead PRAM battery is installed, test it with a multimeter to make sure it is near 3.6 volts.

Just as well the machine is a 6200 series, which is basically a 68040 motherboard with a PPC stuffed in.

A 6100 can be encouraged with a double-tap on the power button.
