You should have a bootable system CD-ROM that came with your computer.
Put the various parts of Norton you want on a floppy and boot from the
CD and run the programs from the floppy.

Norton tried to design their startup disk builder to work with future
system developments but I'm not surprised it doesn't work for everyone.
Exactly how should they write a program to be fully compatible with a
version of the MacOS not released until 2 years after the original program?
