my ibook shows a flashing question mark and finder icon when I start it up

When I start up my iBook, it shows a folder and on it, a flashing question mark and finder icon appears. This is an iBook G4 that I got from my aunty because she didn't need it anymore. I don't know much about it. The model number is A1054 though, and I think it had OS X Panther. Please help!

Click here and follow the instructions. If you reach the third set of steps, insert a Mac OS X install disk.
