Check the mailing-list archive, and http://hadess.net/files/ppc/ibook/
I posted the first version of my installation doc on the ML. My iBook is
soon gonna be back from tech support (I had some problems with the hard
drive) and I'm gonna rewrite this little guide.
It will be a whole lot easier, due to the fact that I was missing some
knowledge of the yaboot parameters...
I also hope to be able to provide a 2.4.0 kernel for it in January, as
well as a version of XFree4 for potato.

They both should work, although I haven't tested the airport, some
people have reported success.
