iMac G5 Linux boot issue

I've got the base laid down and am working on an install script (none of the tools like livehelper etc. are available for PowerPC).

I'm still doing finals at the moment and I would like to get those out of the way first though. I've got an SSD arriving soon hopefully, so I'll bung the Debian HDD under a Firewire interface and get working on a release for sometime over summer.
 
Can we

donate towards the project?

btw, I communicated with the developer of DescentOS, he is indeed working on a PowerPC build of 4.0.1, but it needs "more work" before he can release it. He is pleased to know there is interest, though.

Thanks for creating and working on this project Wildy, a truly lightweight Linux for PowerPC is desperately needed. Our aging Powermacs aren't getting any faster.
