The machine-specific install discs are those that ship with the

Not for OS9 for this MDD, or so I've read on the web anywhere I've
looked; all the info I've found is that the only official release of
9.2.2 that's right for this machine is in the .dmg on one of the
set-of-4 install CDs that shipped with it.

And even that image isn't an actual bootable installer, it's more like
a hard disk back-up image and the intent is to use Disk Utility in OSX
to "restore" the back-up to a partition and that's how you get OS9 onto
the G4 MDD 1.25Ghz. I was hoping that some bright spark might have
hacked a bootable version of it I could burn to CD, but I didn't find
such a thing when I was looking recently.
