Your iBook should be able to run all versions of 10.3, from 10.3.0 to 10.3.7, just fine. I'm not quite sure why it isn't booting from his CD though... While this isn't a nice practice, I'm assuming since you own an iBook, you at one point did have the CD's. What do you mean it stops when it tries to boot? Does the spinning logo appear below the Apple? How long have you let it sit for? When booting from the Mac OS X reinstall disks, it can take sometimes 4-5 minutes to get past that initial screen.
