Urgent Help needed

I've just reformatted my ibook hard drive with osx. I don't have os9 but need this to run some programs. How the hell do i put this on to my ibook? i've followed the instructions that i've been given such as restarting holding down c button. This brings up os9 operating window but i can seem to install from here. there is apparently no folder for me to save to?

I'd be very very very grateful is someone out there could help me.

Many Thanks AGJ

Thanks, i've been doing that but it doesn't take me very far. everytime i go to install a message tells me that the disk cannot be checked? it also does not give me a drop down list of destinations where i can install os9.

thanks for your time in helping
