Installing the OS is pretty simple.
1. insert the CD and press the power button. Immediately press and hold:
command+option+shift+delete keys until you get the happy Mac icon.
This will make the Mac boot from the CD.
2. Initialize (format the disk) by opening the drive setup application
in the utilities flder on the CD.
3. Open the install OS app on the CD and just follow the instructions.
It's pretty easy to do.
Good Luck
