if it's 8.0, it should be the disc that shipped with the G3. when starting on the OS it came with, you SHOULD use the discs that came with the machine. otherwise it won't work
if you don't have the discs, you need to buy some. Go for eBay to get the discs.

What I have is a generic OS 8.0 disk. It does not specify any computer specific information.

And, just for information, why the machine specific CD is required?

Thanks
