Mac OS 9 Booting and Installing for Beginers
IIO:
no idea if the keyboard could be the problem.
for optical i dont think so, for optical you need to hold "c" and not a modifier key. :)
and when i say "c" i mean "c" - make sure that caps lock is not down!
FBz:
You are using a CD successfully burned from this download
(in order to install OS 9.2.2 on a G4 Mac mini)? ;)

IF so, and it still won’t boot from the CD & “c” key boot…
try holding down the Option key with the CD in, at boot.
If that also fails, get back to us for the “Open Firmware” boot routine.
Underdog:
Many thaks for your support.
Found this and it works.
