Can run OS X disk on my PowerMac G3

I bought a two disk OS X set to wipe my computer clean and reinstall OSX on it. It is a Power Mac G3 from 2002. Install isk 1 says it's "Mac Os version 10.4.2. Install disk two says "includes Mac OS 9.2. So should I at least be able to open disk 2? I restarted the computer and held "C" but nothing happened so up started it using Command-option-O-F and it brought me to a terminal where I typed in "boot cd:,////tbxi" but it says ""read of block0 failed can't open cd,////tbxi"

Thank for helping 🙂

PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.2.x)
