Insert Disc 1, then you should have an icon for installing bundled software?

PS: glad you love your new PowerBook!

That is very odd indeed. They must have changed the restore discs maybe. And you checked the second disc?

Again odd.

This I'd call Apple Care about - but these things do change, maybe Apple now produces the restore discs in dual layer...

In my case (12" PBook, Aug 2005):

Disc 1: Tiger (10.4), Apple Hardware test, Bundled Software and X-Code

Disc 2: Bundled software files and OS 9.2.2 classic installer.
