I have an Ibook 12" 500Mhz and I have these

iBook Software Restore CDs set of 3 which wont boot for me
I cant get the cd to boot so I can restore my ibook.
this is what it says on the cd

Mac OS X and Mac OS 9
applications

Mac OS version 9.2.2
CD version 1.1

2002 apple computer inc

I need help please
 
How are you trying to boot from the CDs? Are you inserting the CD, then restarting the computer, then immediately holding down the 'c' key until the computer boots from the CD?

Can you elaborate on the exact procedure(s) you're trying?
 
Are these Restore CDs the original CDs that came with that particular iBook?

When you're booted into OS X as normal, can you mount and read data CDs ok?
 
i curently have ubuntu linux on my ibook, because my ibook could not load the cds.
these are genuine apple ibook restore cds, that are supposed to be for my ibook, and have never been used. my ibook didnt come with any cds when i bought it. it was used, so i got these cds for it. the cds say ibook on them they came with a hardware test cd which booted fine. they are gray cds.
