With my Titanium Book, to install OS 9, you have to install OS X first if you use the original disc, but if you want you can boot the laptop from an external disk, or put it into target disk mode, pop the CD into a machine that can access the CD, go to the CD in the finder, press command+shift+g and type in
.images
(no / before that by the way)
And all the images you can restore are there, you can mount OS9General, and copy the contents from the disk image to the disk you want OS 9 on, and boot it, and bless it if necessary
sudo bless -folder9 "/Volumes/VOLUMEHERE/System Folder"
