You can download the iMac ROM Update 1.0 here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86047 Direct download of the ROM update: http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/MultiCountry/Macintosh/System/Mac_OS_ROM/Mac_OS_ROM_Update_1.0.smi.bin For the iMac I'll also recommend the CD update 2.0 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60458
Here you also get the link for the Apple ftp sites, where there are lots and lots of old updates for nearly anything usable - sorted by language. http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/ And here is the main link to software prior to 1998: http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html - especially, if you're interested in old Macs...
Hope this can help you with your problems. cheers, Erik Richard
