I have one of the last mirrored drive door G4s, the single-CPU 1.25 GHz model with original AirPort and Mac OS 9 booting ability. When I install the Classic-tailored Mac OS 9 folder from the CDs included with the G4, I can boot in OS 9 with few problems, but the G4 still won't boot from my Mac OS 9.2.1 CD, or install directly from it. I would like to install a full, standard version of Mac OS 9 from this CD. Is this particular G4 model not supposed to start from Mac OS 9 CDs, or is something wrong?
Try using the 9.2.2 update from Apple. See the KB http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75186. Is your 9.2.1 CD a retail version or did it come with a specific computer?
