In OSX the older version OS9 shall be installed as "Classic". Check out if you have two system folders on your G4. Check also the "Startvolume" edits - if there are two systems showed, you can change the startvolume to OS9 and make a new start with it. If there is no "Classic" installed, you need the original OSX CD to install the "Classic" system folder. Another alternative is to put a second volume with OS9 into the G4 and then you can change the startvolume as written above.
