This the first track I followed, with the results that I outline below (I have double checked it today). I downloaded the iso image found in http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sarge_d-i/powerpc/tc1/sarge-power pc-netinst.iso and burned a CD with /usr/bin/cdrecord -v -eject -pad speed=16 dev=0,1,0 /cd-image/sarge-powerpc-netinst.iso which corresponds to a "110 MB CD image, with Debian base". According with the HOWTO I use the "c" key to attempt a boot from CD, but MacOS starts instead. No result uploading vmlinux and initrd.gz from the CD (mounted on the i386) to the Mac and modifying accordingly the yaboot.conf (in case this is anyway reasonable I can give details). Is there any hope? Augusto -- The "application/pgp-signature" attachment is my PGP signature. If your mail client is unable to use it, you can safely ignore it.
