installing mac os x panther on a PowerMAC G4

Asked by packet-man in Mac OS 10.3 (Panther), Mac OS X

I recently decided to expand my learning and buy a Power Macintosh (blue and white) MAC G4  on ebay however to my dismay there was no operating system installed.

I get up to step 4 in the setup disc, select a destination and there is a red exclamation mark saying I cannot progress because an earlier version of MAC OS X is not installed.

The MAC OS X version I am trying to install is 10.3 Panther? Any ideas as I am relativly new to Mac operating systems. I have opened the disk utility, and seperated the hardrive into 2 partitions and made sure the first partition is under 8GB. The partition format I am using is MAC OS Extended (Journaled)

Thanks,
