Non-Functional Touchpad on iBook G4

Hi, I recently purchased an iBook G4 with no hard drive and when I boot into the installer from a disk to test out if everything works, the touchpad is unresponsive. Does anybody know why this is? If I boot into the boot selection or the installer the touchpad is still unresponsive. I really like this computer but why is this happening?

The trackpad is glued to the uppercase. Try using an external keyboard and mouse to do your system installation.

If it then fails to work use this guide to replace it: iBook G4 12" 800 MHz-1.2 GHz Upper Case Replacement
