12.3 is not supported on NPE-100 anymore, so it may not work at all.

The boot loader IOS does not have to match the "main" IOS (unless you 
need special interface support for netbooting), though.  Just use anything
recent (12.0S or 12.2) that fits into bootflash.

Again, it's well possible that 12.3 will *not boot* on NPE-100, due to
lack of hardware support.  The only supported NPEs in 12.3 are NPE-225
and faster (and the only supported one that will fit your non-VXR is the 
NPE-225).

Sorry for the bad news.
