The Mac Quadra series were all professional grade boxes based around
the Motorola 68040 processor. The 68k based Macs are mostly supported
in Linux, but there are some issues. However, that discussion is
outside of the scope of this mailing list. If you're serious about
Linux on a Mac that old, take a look at the debian-68k list.
