Default proper panther to tiger with clean tiger install

I have spent most of the day trying to do a clean install of tiger and pt6.9.2

I just got a dual 1.8 g5 that came preinstalled with panther, but included a tiger disk.

I wanted to have a partitioned system disk and a clean install of tiger.
I had to install panther so that I could install tiger
I had the tiger disk erase the partitioned hard drive before installing

After reading another person's post, I put in my PT6.4 TDM disk and installed that first.

I then downloaded the pt 6.9.1update (couldn't find original 6.9 if there was one) and installed that

I then downloaded the 6.9 to 6.9.2 file

I then tried to install and it wouldn't let me because 6.4 (or later) wasn't showing up

i can't run or authorize 6.4 because it doesn't work with tiger

I originally went through this process and thought I messed up somewhere or added an extra cs update

Regardless...
is there any possible way to do a clean install

currently i'm just reinstalling panther, and will try to get 6.9 up and running, and then I will install tiger, followed by 6.9.2

I hope this works

thanks
