Question about installing 10.4 Tiger on iMac G4

Hey folks. So I downloaded CD images for Mac OS 10.4 and burned them to CDs. I tried the DVD image but I couldn’t get my iMac g4 to boot from it. Anyway, so I have been working on installing Tiger on my 1ghz iMac now for quite some time. It’s taking forever. There are lots of disc swaps and it seems to be repeating the same things (BSD sub system, languages, etc) over and over again. It does seem to be progressing and the drive is spinning. I haven’t gotten any errors. Is this normal? Should I just carry on with this seemingly endlessly? Or should I quit the installed and redo this selecting only a limited number of packages in a customized install? Let me know what you recommend. Please before I lose my mind.
