Comment(by davesgonebananas):

 You could be searching for the function '''is_home()''' here.
 Also, when there are no posts found for the blog index WP doesn't issue a
 404, it calls the theme's index.php in which '''have_posts()''' will
 return ''false''.  Therefore, are you sure the 404 you are seeing is not a
 result of your theme's index.php.
