You can't boot off of OS 9 on the newer Macs. I have a 12" Ibook 1.25
and I have to have 10.3.5 minimum to boot.

THEN boot from the first OSX install disc (by holding down the C
key on your keyboard). From the File menu in the installer, choose
Disk Utility (or whatever it is called). This is where you erase
the hard drive. Doing that you also have the chance to "partition"
it so it appears as two separate drives. The point of this is that
you can have OS 9 installed on one partition, and if anything goes
wrong with the OSX partition you can always force the Mac to boot
from OS9 (by holding down the key sequence Shit-Option-Apple-
Backspace). Very useful. And the OS 9 can also be used from inside
OSX (as "Classic")
