B&W G3 doesn't like OS 9.1 or 9.2.1!

I've just received a Blue & White 450MHz G3 that will boot from a retail OS
9.0 CD, as well as 10.0, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3.

But NOT 9.1 or 9.2.1!

In fact, if, after installing OS 9.0, I upgrade to 9.1, the computer shows a
gray screen with cursor. Nothing else.

I've swapped hard drive (with and without three different data cable), RAM,
CD, and video card. All to no avail.

The OS 9.1 install is good, because that drive will boot a G4 tower just
fine.

I'd love to find an answer to this one, as it has me and several others
stumped!
